About this Event
Ben Larsen is a long time resident of Portland, OR where he began his music career thirteen years ago. A singer-songwriter, and multi instrumentalist, Larsen has been busy developing and producing his solo project and the Ben Larsen Band.
His new, self produced album Turn, was developed with the support of many mainstays of the Portland music scene. With roots in acoustic music, Turn grew into a multi genre project creating both an honest and humbling space for Larsen to expand his musical palette.
Sounds on the project range from a full string quartet and horn section, to Larsen alone in front of one mic with a guitar.
Always on the search for a deeper and more genuine understanding and connection to music and listeners, Larsen is constantly expanding and examining his role as an musician, artist and creator.
Maya McNeil and the Twilight Express is a newly formed folk trio hailing from Davis CA, freshly transplanted here amongst the redwoods by the sea. Frontwoman singer-songwriter Maya McNeil is joined by Ben Pearl on mandolin and guitar, and everyone’s favorite percussionist all sides of the Sacramento River, Warren Charles Jones. The trio charms new life into McNeil’s potent folk originals, and shine up a couple beloved Kate Wolf tunes along the way. With rich melodic storytelling vocals and the undeniable joy of a washboard and an old Kay guitar, you won’t want to miss this new Santa Cruz Mountain trio opening up the night.
