Ben Lear takes folk rock to new levels as you can hear in his most recent release “Lillian.” The folk rock inspired opera beautifully showcases a combination of acoustic guitar, percussion and orchestral arrangements. Listen to it today and then come see Ben play our show this Thursday with his friends Snowmine, Spanish Prisoners and Field Mouse at Pianos in New York City.
Click here to see how you can win free tickets to the show plus vinyl and CD’s from Snowmine and Spanish Prisoners.
Please join us for a very special celebratory Groundhog Day night of music with two of our favorite Album of the Week picks, Snowmine and Spanish Prisoners.
Brooklyn local Field Mouse and Academy Award nominated artist Ben Lear will be performing, too, making this is one helluva lineup you won’t want to miss.

Snowmine: The Brooklyn five-piece embraces an indie pop sound rich with echo pedals, tribal beats, electro-acoustic soundscapes and classical orchestrations. The band is fronted by new-classical composer Grayson Sanders, whose vocals have been compared to Robin Pecknold and Jim Jones. They’ll be heading in to the studio to begin work on their next full length LP, but for now keep an eye out for their upcoming duel remixes with Twin Sister.
Spanish Prisoners: Lead singer, songwriter and guitarist Leo Maymind and his bandmates – keyboardist/vocalist Amberly Hungerford, drummer/songwriter Mike DiSanto, and multi-instrumentalist James Higgs slowly molded fragments of home recordings into layered, fluid, headphone symphonies that emphasized the raw randomness in electronic sound. Their most recent release Gold Fools was recently recognized as one of the top five Bandcamp albums of 2011 by NPR.
Buy tickets here and rsvp. We can’t wait to see you and cheers to the little groundhog not seeing his shadow!
