   About Brendan Benson ~ NEW RECORD OUT SOON


Michigan-born, Nashville-based singer/songwriter Brendan Benson debuted with a critically acclaimed first album “One Mississippi” in 1996. “Lapalco”, the follow-up album brought him his first taste of success, with hits such as “Good To Me” and “Tiny Spark”. “The Alternative to Love”- Brendans’ third album - was released in 2005 which included the singles “Cold Hands Warm Heart” and “Spit it Out”.
Around this time Benson started writing songs together with friend Jack White, of the White Stripes, and came up with tracks such as “Steady As She Goes” and “Level”. They soon formed The Raconteurs along with two members of The Greenhornes- Jack Lawrence and Patrick Keeler. In the Spring of 2006 they released their, now world-famous, album “Broken Boy Soldiers” which was recorded at the in-house studio at Brendans old home in Detroit. This has since been followed by the 2nd album “Consolers of the Lonely”, which is out now.
Brendan has produced, recorded and/or fiddled with records by The Greenhornes, The Whirlwind Heat, The Waxwings, and The Muldoons.
In-between this producing, touring and recording, he has also been in the studio recording his fourth solo album with Gil Norton (Pixies, Foo Fighters) which he will be releasing in 2009.
