Live Music - Carrie Rodriguez & Ben Sollee


It was an wonderful evening where no instrument had more than four strings, acoustic or electric. At the intimate Stage One theater in Fairfield, CT, we enjoyed an evening with two young solo performers, Carrie Rodriguez and Ben Solee. After each performed a solo set, they played the remainder of the evening together - Carrie on fiddle and tenor guitar and Ben on electric cello.

Carrie has a couple of solo recordings available, Seven Angels On A Bicycle and She Ain't Me, which can be found on her website http://www.carrierodriguez.com/. She's got a new album coming out in March that's well worth looking for.

Ben has an album, Learning To Bend that you can find at http://www.bensollee.com/, along with a new collaboration he's done with Daniel Martin Moore.
