Description
"Bennett's honest voice is the centerpiece of his songs. He's best when he lets it fly with a Dylanesque 'what the hell' attitude. The voice is complemented by fine guitar and harmonica work, haunting cello and lyrics that have something to say. Singer-songwriter fans should enjoy the tales of lost love and lost souls on 'The Atascadero Sessions." - BILL REED - THE COLORADO SPRINGS GAZETTE
Jason Bennett recently received a Nashville music publishing deal for his song "Snap My Fingers", which can be listened to here at cdbaby.com/jasonbennett2 on his second album, "Self Portrait". You can find out all the latest info at bennettfolk.com.
Jason Bennett is a BMI singer-songwriter currently living in Shelton, Washington which is just outside of Olympia. Bennett's main influence is the great Bob Dylan and he has also been influenced by Phil Ochs, Joan Baez, Billy Bragg, Kevin Meisel, Michelle Shocked and numerous others. Bennett is accompanied on cello by San Luis Obispo cellist Bob Liepman, who is part of the California husband-wife folk duo Bob & Wendy.
Jason has another cd available here on cdbaby. Check out his second cd, "Self Portrait." It was recorded mostly in Texas with the brother duo Cleve and A.J. Clark.
"The Atascadero Sessions" consists of ten original songs featuring Bennett on vocals, guitar and harmonica and Liepman on cello, mandolin and mandocello. Also featured on the CD are California singer-songwriter Janine Elich and Ojai percussionist and tennis star Drew Lurie.
Also on "The Atascadero Sessions" is a song called "If It's True" which was co-written by an extremely talented singer-songwriter from California named Robert "Rauly" Curran. Curran plays occasionally in coffeehouses throughout the San Fernando Valley and is a fabulous acoustic guitarist blending clear vocals with Michael Hedges-like guitar. Check this Curran dude out!!!
Jason Bennett has been getting radio airplay in England, Germany, Belgium and Budapest as well as numerous independent and college stations here in the United States.
Bennett's songs focus on soft, warm vocals with lyrics that can be sometimes quite somber and lost:
"I gave you the sun
and you turned it to rain,
and you traded my love for pain.
And the pebbles in the sand
Fall through my hand
and spell out the words, "Goodnight Suzanne."
---Track #3- "Goodnight Suzanne"
