Benji Norman @ Static Attic (Full Session Free Preview- READ DESCRIPTION)
Okay, this is a struggle for me to even talk about, but producing this podcast is a time consuming and sometimes expensive labor of love. So I am going to release certain content behind a paywall.Here’s how it works: Artists come on the show, record an actual live set, and then we pick a few songs that make it into the podcast episode (WHICH WILL ALWAYS BE FREE). The full set of songs gets edited separately and maybe with some extra flare and released behind a small paywall here on Substack. Though, many of you seem to listen on Apple Podcasts, and for that I may re-open my patreon which has been powered down and collecting dust for several years. If you like what I do, want a little extra live performance from the artists I feature, and want to support Static Attic, please consider pledging. Paywall goes up next month with Curly Blue’s full set.
Now, the main attraction. Please note: the interview podcast episode will be out later this month. I need a little more time on it. Since they only performed 3 songs and we used all three in the episode, this set is the perfect free preview!
I want to hear from you! Tell me how this session makes you feel. Leave a comment!
Benji Norman
Benji writes songs from the heart as he learns to navigate his own feelings. He recently married and moved to Colorado for grad school, so it may be a while before he plays any more shows here in South Carolina.I met Benji through his brother Sawyer, an excellent songwriter and performer in his own right, who appears in this session as part of the band.The day these folks descended upon my house was a warm and sunny April afternoon. They made themselves right at home, making peanut butter and honey sandwiches for the whole band, and doing my dishes because they noticed I hadn’t gotten to them that morning (I was super embarrassed about this, and they were so kind).The love, affection, and wholesomeness this huge group of friends shared with each other warmed my heart and home.
I hope this session warms your heart too.

Music Recommendations:
* I have been listening to this album quite a bit recently. The opening song had me crying. Nathan Evans Fox (https://substack.com/profile/324173538-nathan-evans-fox), Heirloom.
* I recently went to see Russian Circles and Pelican with Space Zane (https://substack.com/profile/332498499-space-zane). This new EP from Pelican has been on my turntable (the fancy new one my wife got me for my 40th birthday, shouts out babe [also, today is her birthday, so if you know her, say hey!]) several times since.
