Esteemed roots/Americana label Rounder Records announces the signing of eclectic indie artist Judy Blank, and the release of her new single, “Dinosaurs”. The track will appear on the three-track multi-single Lil’ Mood, which is set for digital release on March 14th.

Born and raised in Utrecht, The Netherlands, Blank launched her recording career with her coming-of-age debut LP Morning Sun, which was recorded in Nashville and went on to win the 2023 Gold Award in her homeland. Her song ‘Tangled Up in You’ from the album currently has over twelve million streams on Spotify. Blank has sold out numerous clubs in Europe as a headliner and has opened for artists like Langhorne Slim, The Wood Brothers and SUSTO. Blank now calls Nashville home since making the move in early 2024.

“Judy Blank represents everything we love about discovering extraordinary talent – she’s a true original who defies easy categorization,” says Rounder Records President, Stephanie Hudacek. “Her classic inspired melodies blend with contemporary indie sensibilities, while still maintaining the intimacy of a folk artist, speaking to the evolving sound of our modern space. Her magnetic presence and disarmingly honest songwriting transcend borders. We’re thrilled to welcome her to the Rounder family and help share her unique voice with audiences worldwide.”

With influences ranging from the sound of classic 1960’s girl groups to blue-eyed soul to edgy garage rock, Blank’s music strikes a balances between retro and modern stylings with the thoughtful lyricism of a singer/songwriter.

Her new song “Dinosaurs” is equal parts lighthearted and though-provoking. Informed by the current effects of climate change, Blank’s melodic arrangement and haunting yet playful vocals give way to a cheeky reckoning on the state of our environment. “I was obsessed with disaster movies as a kid,” says Blank. “Now I sometimes feel like I’m living in one. When I wrote this song, I thought of it as a postcard from the future. I hope it can be a low-key reminder that it’s time to change the ending.” Listen to “Dinosaurs” HERE.
