Erin McKeownBen Weaver
The dynamic Ms McKeown has packed a ton of music into her young career, and with a brand new live recording called Lafayette due out Sept 25, she’s showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon! Equally prolific, restless songwriter Ben Weaver has been praised as “riveting” (No Depression) and “a startling talent” (Time Out London) that “tells amazing stories” (Utne Reader) in his evocative songs populated by birds, phone booths, lovers, and plastic bags stuck in trees. His May 2007 release Paper Sky reveals a major songwriting talent, haunting and quietly beautiful.

"In several distinctive ways - voice, dynamic subtlety, and sheer songwriting ability - Erin McKeown is in a class of her own."- Sunday Times (UK)

"...country-rooted Americana full of weary determination and aphoristic clarity, somewhere between the Band and Tom Waits.” Jon Pareles, New York Times (on Ben Weaver)
