THE BENS - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

K-Wise · 09-17-2003, 04:37 PM

So if your a fan of Ben Kweller and Ben Folds Five they're teaming up with Ben Lee to form a band called "THE BENS" and they're gonna release 1 CD together. I dunno too much about it cause I heard about the group on MTV's You Hear It First so if anyone else has any info on this...please feel free to post it. I really like Kweller and Ben Folds so I'm pretty sure I'll really like this group. The single sounds really good. Ben Folds says he was fooling around on Kwellers Guitar and the Ben Lee I believe started adding some piano too it and they decided to all go off to their own little corners and write 1 verse each and don't tell the other what they're writing and see what came out. It sounded pretty good hopefully they'll have a video out for it soon.

Well I found an article on it at MTV.com peep the link
