| The Ben Bowen Project @ the Casbah, Hamilton | 9/9/2005 7:00pm |
| Continuing along the theme of exploring tunes from other musical genres in an instrumental jazz context, the latest manifestation of the Ben Bowen Project will be playing a fair bit more Bruce Cockburn as well as some Thom Yorke, Radiohead, Jonatha Brooke, Simon & Garfunkel, and maybe even the odd hymn. Add to that a smattering of standards and originals, and we'll be lucky to get in a set break...!
