Three Benson: March 2007
http://b3nson.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 31, 2007. The Ashes of Vesuvius - The New New Beirut EP. Beirut is a spatial band. Their new Pompeii. EP is only available digitally at EMusic helps us circumnavigate their short but illustrious travels. Their old new ep, Lon Gisland. Presumably named in reference to the band's migration to Williamsburg BK from Albequerque NM, was a logical continuation of their Gypsy Folk stylings of my #1 album of last year, Gulag Orkestar.

Three Benson: A Quick Note
http://b3nson.blogspot.com/2008/03/quick-note.html
Tuesday, March 25, 2008. There is a lot going on musically in Albany these days. Actually, there probably has been for a while, but I worked a lot of stupid jobs and was kind of missing out on it. Mercifully, I don't work for any stupid jobs anymore, so I can go see lots of people play lots of instruments and it's a good time. On St Patricks day, I went to see Dunbar play with a band called Barons In The Attic. On April 3rd at 8 pm a bunch of newer bands will be playing a showat CDFI; these include littl...

Three Benson: Bri Smith and Jes Seamans are Best Friends Forever
http://b3nson.blogspot.com/2008/02/bri-smith-and-jes-seamans-are-best.html
Saturday, February 2, 2008. Bri Smith and Jes Seamans are Best Friends Forever. About two months ago, I had a phone conversation with a good friend of mine. After talking about the usual silly things that people talk about on the phone (like stuff you're doing with yourself and whatever happened to that recipe you said you would give me? A lot of fun. Give them a try, and you might find yourself feeling the urge to write your own songs about cool dead people. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Three Benson: July 2007
http://b3nson.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 30, 2007. Open the Book to Page France. For at least the last eight months I have been hearing the band's name being thrown around or praised a number of times and I finally took some initiative and sought out some of their music. Although Page France have just released an album titled ". And the Human Telephone", their 2005 release "Hello, Dear Wind" is the one I chose to listen to. Or did it choose me? Http:/ www.pagefrance.net/main.html. Tuesday, July 24, 2007. The question about steel ho...

Three Benson: August 2007
http://b3nson.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 21, 2007. Memories of a Muddy Cup Open Mic. It didn't dawn on me the first time I went to an open mic at Muddy Cup that the event was in its infancy. I was new myself and felt like an outsider looking in through gigantic windows while old friends strummed guitars, sat on couches, and sipped mocha lattes like they must have been doing there for centuries. Before we even made it inside a giant poster on the window caught our attention. MUDDY CUP OPEN MIC MONDAY. SIGN UPS AT 8:00. Suddenly E...
