After over a decade of meditative contemplation, Gentle Ben & His Shimmering Hands emerge, like a butterfly lashing itself free from a chrysalis.Available on Beast Records (France) and Spooky Records (ROTW), Gentle Ben & His Shimmering Hands unveil their new album, Brut.
The themes of Brut range from a fraught, taught exploration of the broken bodies, hearts and minds of our capitalist hellscape (“Spices”) to wailing rock and roll eulogies (“De Bliksem”, “No Encore”), a drifting death-country ode to colonialism (“Five Stars”) to bloody kitchen sink drama (“Tactical Empathy”).
Brut has smashed into the Australian Independent Record Labels Association Charts, been named 4ZZZ-FM's Album of the Week and has received over 5000 streams on Spotify in under two weeks.
Slow Show considers Brut to be 'an album that joins the very select club of absolute masterpieces ... The melody, the orchestration, the voice… It’s breathtaking.'
Gentle Ben & His Shimmering Hands will be breaking hearts all over France, with a run of 13 shows, including two performances at Binic Folks Blues Festival.
