In the fall of 2014, Ben townsend, a renowned storyteller and traditional musician from the appalachian mountain region, and Ben Guzman, a native angeleno, known for his involvement in the los angeles old time social, the Bicycle Kitchen, and triple Chicken Foot rode their bicycles across the country, playing music, and filming regional musicians and artists along the way. Join "2 Guys Named Ben" for an evening blending storytelling, live music, film and cycling. The two Bens will take you on a multimedia bicycle tour starting in Hampshire County, West Virginia through the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Louisiana Bayou, along the Mexican border, through the Southwestern Desert, finally landing in Los Angeles, California.
Along with friends Triple Chicken Foot, sausage Grinder, members of the Hi Fi Honeydrops, Erin Schneider, and Joe Wack, the Bens will present songs harvested from each state they traveled through. Throughout the performance documentary shorts filmed on the tour will be screened featuring musicians and artists met on their travels - including the debut of our Deep End Sessions short.
