about

A few years ago, I heard a review of an album which described the artist’s songs as coming out of a quiet place. What a beautiful phrase - out of a quiet place. It perfectly describes how it feels my own songs are born. Even songs that are loud or rowdy - they all seem to start in a calm moment. Some place where time is briefly suspended, where a thought attaches to a melody. This is where I look for them.
My fellow musicians on this album helped each of these songs mature into something I couldn’t have imagined when they were born, raising them with great care, giving each a nudge to move out into the world.
They are ready for a listen or two...

Ben Hunsberger Bowdoinham

layer fresh melodies with full-bodied undertones.
fold in a little nature and politics.
season with angst, humor, and a pinch of sarcasm.
serve with plenty of volume.
