Do you remember the music video “Baby Can Dance” by singer/songwriter Carsie Blanton?
It was shot in New Orleans, is featuring dancers such as Peter Loggins, Chance Bushman, Lisa Casper and more and got 125'000+ views so far.
Last week, Carsie launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund at least US $29'000 for her latest music project, a jazz record named “Jazz Is For Everybody”.
Carsie's Plan
To make a jazz record for people who aren't jazz geeks. There will be no vocal acrobatics, no virtuosic solos, no cheese, and no chimes. Just kickass old songs, simply arranged, simply performed, and simply produced.
If you are a jazz geek, though, I won't hold it against you. I'm as geeky as they come. I'm looking to make a record that we geeks can take home and listen to with our mothers, our grandmothers, and even our indie-band loving hipster siblings.
If you can dig that, take a short stroll over to the right side of the page, and select whichever reward makes you the most giddy.
