About Me

Singer song-writer Anjie Carpenter is a Carolina-grown southern girl making a big splash in pop and country with her authentic story-songs and pure-as-the-driven snow, intimate lyrical tones. Nashville cronies call her the Marlene Dietrich of country. RCA of New York says, "Anjie is obviously a very talented singer." She has been singing nationally since 2000, with a discography of four self-penned gospel and country albums.
Anjie is a winner of WMIT's solo artist of the year contest and has garnered over ten thousand votes for The Light's Star Search Event. She has grass-roots radio play in the Charlotte area and a strong local fan base.
Her newest release, Old Front Porch, features ten of her finest with special guest Kevin Breit, the musical string-genius who created Norah Jones' unique stylings. Old Front Porch caught the attention of legendary producer Papa Don Schroeder, who whisked Anjie off to Nashville for a stunning new album called "Turn the Quiet Up."
