How long have you been playing?
Since I was around 16 years old.
A scene from the film "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?" and the song "Hard Time Killing Floor Blues" made me want to play.

Are you in a band? Have you been in bands?
I used to be in a band called Devil Said Maybe - with my brother a good friend of ours. We played out in San Francisco quite a bit.
Now I just play out solo as much as I can.

If you could jam with anyone, who would it be?
Hard question to answer - Howlin' Wolf probably, he would be the most fun I bet.

Benjamin Brown EP
"A Friend"
Broken, but not beaten
Hurtin', yet still stay
Leanin' on uneven floors
Bless the heart - of you & yours.
'Yer secret, is safe with me
And I will carry all your pain
But I won't cry with you honey
Help you up, like ya done for me.
"When The Flames Came"
Captured and framed - Seen again and again
Condemned face has faded
You've dreamed this before - A nightmare and nothin' more
But you're not sleepin'
- Drown in your own reason - Why don't you?
Your haste is hazy - eyes sold too loosely
Why won't you end me already?
Your white lies - shall leave you blind
And you'll be forced to listen
To my demons - you've been blessing'
- Stained and desecrated - Your beloved
Well, well, well now
A chip off your blade
And all the blame has
Crumbled to clay
And in the way of my
Tracks you lay
The smell of gasoline
- When the flames came.
"Keep"
Sun breaks the fog - Just to touch her face
Weeping on her knees - Unashamed
Trying to keep - herself from laughing
And gnawing - to stop - the bleeding
When she sang her song - it hurt so good
Hanging on - every word I would
Your damnedest - I know, you could
If my lips could reach - I'd kiss to keep
Cuz this day is dead - need water to breathe
Whatever life I've left
You can have - the rest
Aint' got a dime - to deserve to die
Aint' got no loan - to play me home
No devil's deal
To soothe my soul.
"Red Led"
Dead man's boots - Cursed they may be
"Keep on the move - Need em' more than me"
- I'll sing, keen for him
Exit wounds - None I can see
Hid in the dunes - There are-a many
- And I'll pray, for his family
Red Led
Gone on got him
The weight he could not wager
Well, Hell aint' much further - Dead
Badlands - I'm bound down
Footsteps left - On this ol' hollow ground
And I hear - that 6 gun sound
His wits were cold - And cutting slow
Grave of gravel - So nothing' grows
Red Led
Gone on got him
The weight he could not wager
Well, Hell aint' much further - Dead.
"Little Song"
Well look it here - The sayer can't speak
All my luck - I've already drunk
I'm a black burned tree still standing - up
Cut me down so I can heal - love
When the river meets the road
Here, have my heart - to hold
Just enough but just once more
Come back, don't go, I don't know how long
Cuz Lord knows, I can't do it all - alone
My body, not a bone to beckon
When the river meets the road
Here, have my heart - to hold.
"Cryin' Wolf"
Aint' nothin' new - Aint' nothin' old
Always been - Hope I'm wrong
What I know - Aint' so
Cryin' Wolf - Don't cry no mo'
Wrong ways are worn
Sho be dead come morn
When my blood is born
No longer me torn
End of the line - won't seem so lonesome
And I'm smiling - for no reason
Come shadow - under my door
What are you - What are you waitin' for?
Please learn me to let go
Cuz what I know - aint' so
Cryin' Wolf - don't cry no mo
Aint' nothin' new - Aint' nothin' old
Always been - Hope I'm wrong
Hope I'm wrong.
"Farewell"
Shore I'ma headed for
On a trail less traveled
And when I go
It'll be for good
Evenin' fallin'
And the winds are a rollin' in
And the debt I owe
Is as old as the hills
Please believe me
When I say goodbye
Sweet dreams to ya
And a goodnight
Time drags on as
Loves gone meager and mere
And it's been a many a moon
Since I knew you dear
I'll look before I leap cuz
Ashes won't wash me
The oath divined
Has passed away
Please believe me
When I say goodbye
Sweet dreams to ya
And a goodnight
Root was severed
Seed soak forever
And never dies
Shore I'ma headed for
On a trail less traveled
And when I go
It'll be for good.
