Benjamin Booker Returns With First Song in Seven Years and a Fascinating New Sound

Benjamin Booker is back with his first new music in seven years, releasing 'Lwa In the Trailer Park,' from his upcoming album, 'Lower.'

But Booker’s songcraft and knack for melody remain tight as ever, as he sings in hushed tones over blown-out drums and screaming guitars, “No one will ever love me/I see the way they talk about people on this side of town.” “Now that I’m working on a series of connected videos, Schrader has had an influence in that arena as well, along with Jean-Pierre Melville’s Le Samourai and Charles Burnett’s Killer of Sheep.” 28 – Washington, D.C. @ Union StageMarch 2 – Asheville, NC @ EulogyMarch 3 – Atlanta, GA @ Aisle 5March 5 – Nashville, TN @ 3rd and LindsleyMarch 7 – New Orleans, LA @ Siberia
