About this concert
Benjamin Cartels songs can often conjure the same subliminal tension as that of a Randy Newman or John Prine -.American SongwriterBenjamin Cartel is no stranger to making music that quickly connects with its listeners. Thats something hes always excelled at, first with the substantial attention and acclaim accorded his duo Kaiser Cartel, and then, with a return to his solo career. To date, the latter has yielded two highly acclaimed efforts, an EP called Money and Love and a full length outing entitled Gothenberg, each of which helped broaden his reputation while underscoring his obvious ambitions. With the release of Flickering Light, Cartel is realizing that vision like never before. Im not trying to overwhelm anybody, he says. To me, less is more. At the same time, I live and breathe what I do. Theres nothing like a good catchy melody to convey emotion and inspire my enthusiasm.
