Songwriter’s Showcase: Darci Carlson

Straight up Country – No Chaser.

Seattle’s Outlaw Country Queen Darci Carlson is a high energy, no non-sense Singer Songwriter from WA with a decade long presence in the PNW music scene.

This DIY firecracker of a front woman has performed around the US and beyond not only as a country artist, but as a lead guitar player for her all-girl punk rock band The Dolly Rottens, as well as a co-fronting Bassist and Singer for ‘Weird Western Cowboy Band’ Brent Amaker Deathsquad.

Darci is also known for her involvement as a model and actress with the ZZTop crew from 2012-2015 on the “Gang of Outlaws Tour” as the sassy pistol packin’ vixen “The Girl”.

Darci delivers a true country performance of foot stompin’ originals and classic country favorites drenched in hardcore twang. This isn’t Punk Country or a vanity act. This is a no non-sense, throwback, true country affair.

A natural story teller, her songs highlight tales of her truth, youth, and lawless adventures, no matter how ‘wild, reckless & crazy’. Her smokey sweet lived-in voice reminiscent of the after taste of a shot of whiskey, has been compared to other leading ladies in the Country and Rock Genres such as Bonnie Raitt, Tammy Wynette, Patty Loveless, Miranda Lambert, and Courtney Love.
