Fresh off a successful year of international performances spanning the US West Coast to Latvia, NYC-based orchestral indie-folk group BenBen + Friends is teaming up with London psych-folk artist Omam Dawn for a UK mini-tour in March. Celebrated for their innovative live experiences, the two acts promise audiences an unforgettable evening of ethereal dreamscapes, orchestral arrangements, and visual storytelling.
They will also be celebrating the publication of Odd Birds, a magical graphic novel co-created with Cardiff-based, queer Polish illustrator Kamila Krol exploring themes of migration, transformation, transmuting betrayal into beauty.
So, BenBen + Friends, led by NYC musician and animator Ben Wigler, features soaring tenor vocals paired with stunning cello and violin arrangements, creating otherworldly, riff-driven folk. With projections and book talk.
