New Album, "Cars On Fire," by Blanker (John Norwood, '06) Out Now!

"Cars on Fire" is the fourth album by Blanker, the solo project of John Norwood (former PUJE guitarist and Upstate Escape frontman). In putting together this latest release, Norwood focused on distilling a wide range of demos written over the past year and a half into seven tracks of alt-rock that are equal parts rowdy and reflective. Given ongoing pandemic restrictions, the album was written, performed, and produced entirely by Norwood from his apartment in Brooklyn. As always, all Blanker projects are available free of charge. Enjoy!
