BalconyTV – Brendan Benson

Every undertaking seems to have a moment when they earn their legitimacy. For example, when the mostly defunct Lake Fever Sessions unveiled their recordings with St. Vincent they seemed to “be on the map” from that point forward.

In the interest of positivity, I’m going to say that Brendan Benson doing a song for BalconyTV is their time to put the proverbial stake in the ground. I would suggest the host do a little research in the future (he’s a bit oblivious to the three solo albums Benson released prior to Raconteurs) but that’s all part of finding their place. It’s a good performance and serves as a legit reason to keep an eye on the BalconyTV project as a whole; even if it is a lot of performances to sort through.
