Benson Highway Band play this Friday in Tucson!

 

We will be opening for Vandonliers at 191 Toole on Friday! 

Fri. 2/27/26

191 Toole

191 E Toole Ave.

Tucson 85701

Doors at 7PM show at 8PM sharp. 

Tix are kind of expensive which makes me hope that some Vandoliers fans will get to the venue early enough to see Benson Highway Band play. Guess we'll find out on Friday evening.

Recorded live at Oakland's venerable Stork Club. ebolabuddha is playing again apparently. Perhaps someday they'll travel to Arizona or perhaps I'll find myself visiting California at a time when they're playing.

Some video up at Archive.org!

Recorded on iPhone inside of the garage of the apartment that I lived in, Oakland CA 2011 or '12. This may have been uploaded to YouTube at the time. The apartment was tiny but the neighborhood was sweet. I hosted Cosmists and Crow Crash Radio practices there a lot.

New Crow Crash Radio audio up at Archive.org!

Crow Crash Radio playing for friends and family at a house party in Oakland, 2018. A real fun party and I think that comes across in the sound. Fine memories of fond times.

A couple of shots of the Benson Highway Band last weekend!

 


Top photo from Time Out Lounge in Tempe. There were some people in the bar, not too many, and it felt to me as if they were not really interested in our music for the most part. I recorded this set and it shows the band's dipping into new textures through Sean Whalen's pedal board. An exciting development. The bottom shot is at Che's Lounge in Tucson. It looks as though there are no people but we did have some kind of an audience to play to. The night air was pretty cold by the time that we played but I think that we played well. 

Absolutely fun to share a bill with Barefoot on Bumblebees. Stryker and Gianna are true independent music producers and it's flattering to be involved with them in any way. They are the good guys if you get my drift. Terlingua do all of the Rock Star stuff that I never really evinced (not capable) or understood but that's their way I guess. 

A fun couple of shows, albeit somewhat manic for me by the time that they were concluded. I'm alright though.
