Starting out west with some familiar faces, she is doing these shows a bit scaled back as a solo/duo act before going full band a bit down the road.
"I'm mostly on tour from now until June; these shows were with The Wood Brothers and it was just a duo but the rest of the shows will be with a full band.This is maybe the tenth or eleventh time I've toured with The Wood Brothers but it's been about seven years since we were on the road together so I'm very happy to return and get to hang out with some of my favorite people and favorite musicians."
As stated, Blanton is a tireless creator, performer and songwriter who seems to always have something up her tattoo sleeves; so what's in store after this tour is in the books?
"I'm already working on the next album but it will be at least a year until I get back in the studio; I've got some songs a-brewin'. I have two more videos that are almost done; one for the song "Bed" and one for the song "Desire" and possibly another one after that. I've always wanted to do a music video based on an old Hollywood musical, like the dance numbers in "West Side Story;" that's my dream but I haven't come up with the budget for it yet but maybe I'll find it over the next couple of months (laughs)."

That's it for this week! Please continue to support live and original music and until next week....ROCK ON!
