 New York (Top40 Charts/ Shore Fire Media) - Do you wanna watch the playful, campy new video for 'Belt Buckle,' a standout track from Kendel Carson's new album 'Alright Dynamite,' in which Carson shimmys and sways as Adam West Batman-era 'Pows' explode around her and two hepcat horn players accompany her, reverse Robert Palmer-style? Don't lie. Of course you do, it sure beats doing work (especially on a Monday). Check out the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COba5siNP58 The song itself is a slinky, smoky country rocker, aided by Memphis Horns style brass, on which Carson declares 'pour some water on me, it's too hot for me here.' A magnetic 24-year-old with a honey-dipped voice and serious fiddling chops, Carson demonstrates spunk and sultriness on 'Alright Dynamite,' out June 23 on Train Wreck Records. At times flirtatious and bawdy, at others wistful and reflective, on the new album Carson demonstrates an exceedingly confident spirit, building upon her 2007 debut 'Rearview Mirror Tears,' named one of the top five Roots albums of the year by Q magazine. The album was produced by legendary songwriter Chip Taylor, who co-wrote 4 songs with Carson and penned 9 others for the album.
