A magic moment
author: phil sneveCarsie has a great sweetness in her voice. She varies her style, always keeping things on the upside. Good stuff. I recommend you complete the acquisition of this music.
Passims!

Beautiful Music
author: Jonathan CliftonI first met Carsie Blanton in 2006 at Milkboy in Ardmore, where we were both performing. As she started playing, this hush came over the audience and you could have heard a pin drop. I couldn't believe that someone so young could write such thoughtful, intelligent and poignant lyrics.I knew then that this was someone special. Obviously, other people agreed and she quickly became a regular performer on WXPN and at venues across the country. I couldn't be more pleased since she is not only a talented performer with a hauntingly pure voice, but she is such a nice person. i've just bought yet another copy of this lovely album to give to a friend!
Multi-generational
author: Teresa TobeyMy daughters, Elizabeth and Sarah (aka Boots) introduced me to Carsie's CD, which I liked so much I had to buy my own copy. Keep up the good work!

Unique, memorable, and refreshing!
author: BeccaI bought this CD after hearing a few songs at a swing dance...it is now definitely one of my favorite CDs in my collection! Carsie's lyrics are original, innovative, and true; her melodies are memorable; her voice is unique and refreshing. I can't wait to hear more from Carsie!

Funky, Jazzy and Sweet . . . (more, Carsie, more!)
author: Liam BowlerI've heard there are two types of music listeners, those who pay attention to lyrics and those who don't. For those who don't, this disc should keep your toes tapping and air horns blowing, and chambering metallic guitar strings in your head. For those who do, Carsie writes masterfully intelligent lyrics, with hooks that lead you this way, this way, then WHAM . . . left hook. It's a beautiful CD, and I'm ready for the next!
Always playing somewhere in my house!
author: George T.Incredible voice, memorable lyrics, colorful and sophisticated. "Ain't So Green" is intelligently humorous and deeply meaningful at the same time. Carsie's music is continuously in my head and always brightens my day.
Bought another one!
author: KathyI'm the Kathy that reviewed this CD previously. I had my niece listen to it, and she enjoyed it so much, that I purchased a CD for her. Her voice is hauntingly beautiful and pure.
Love, love, love it!
author: KimI am so in love w/ this cd! I have listened to it over and over. I am a lyric person and Carsie know how to say things in an interesting way and .... that VOICE! Take Me Along goes on my play list of "Happy Songs". It never fails to put a smile on my face. Love, love, love it!

author: Brentsince every imaginable adjective has been abused in the previous reviews I would just like to say that I liked it a whole bunch. and if I lost it, I would buy it again, and again.
A Delightfully Delectable Soul-Pot-Pie
author: Jessica Parsons-TaylorAin't So Green is a musical confection. Sweet, saucy, soulful, and ultimately incredibly moving, Carsie Blanton not only speaks her truth, but yours as well. The juicy vocals and achingly honest lyrics will set your mind to mushing, your heart to twittering and leave you feeling...well...understood.
hauntingly beautiful voice
author: Dan E.Carsie has an incredible voice, hauntingly beautiful. She is also versitile in her music. Sure it is acoustic, but there is a range of musical styles to add to its enjoyment and for listening over and over.
