Benedict
Pigs
An evocative descent into raw, grit-laced Americana and post-punk folk. Formed in the damp forests of the Pacific Northwest, the band blends bone-dry acoustics with driving, heavy rhythms and visceral, poetic songwriting.
FEATURED ARTIST
At the core of the storm stands Ben Peled, a songwriter whose weathered voice and dirt-under-the-fingernails stories have earned the band a fierce underground cult following.
