Benjy Davis Project w/ Sons of Bill Thursday, August 19th @ 8pm
w/ SONS OF BILL & JACOB JEFFRIES
Genre: Rock/ Alternative/ Southern Rock
Benjy Davis Project's new album "Lost Souls Like Us" takes its title from a text message, which makes sense when you consider that each track on the album serves the same purpose: each song tells a unique and direct story. The songs are meant to be enjoyed in and of themselves, and will stand the test of popular "shuffle" listening habits. "Lost Souls Like Us," recorded at Rivergate Studios in Hendersonville, TN, is packed with moments, both lyrical and musical, that define the band: Davis' intensely-personal lyrics coupled with music that comfortably serves the needs of the story Davis is telling. Benjy Davis Project's Southern roots (they hail from Baton Rouge, LA) are on display in gorgeous down-home rhythms and slide guitar work. "I draw a lot from my surroundings and the Southern atmosphere and attitude," Davis says. "The music comes from my daily experiences and my way of life." The record also shows a natural progression and the maturity that comes from a band on their fourth studio album.
ons of Bill (AMERICANA) Too edgy for Nashville, but too earnest for New York, just right for Skipper's. With a sound like a more upbeat Son Volt and songcraft on a par with Damn The Torpedoes-era Tom Petty, these young'uns have been called �equal parts raucous and reflective.� sonsofbill.com
