Brendan Benson
Brendan Benson Biography
LAPALCO took five years, (mostly) four tracks, three cities, two musicans and one career-changing major label stint. Brendan Benson's second album was written, performed and produced entirely by Benson, with an occasional assist from Jason Falkner. Its dozen songs showcase a brand of rock'n'roll melodicism that's both jangly and crunchy, wistful and witty, dreamy and dark, hi-gloss and lo-fi. As Burt Lancaster says to Tony Curtis in The Sweet Smell of Success, "it's a cookie full of arsenic."
