3/10 Ben Fisher
with Shelby Earl
Ben Fisher Returns From The Land Of Ben-Gurion
Ben Fisher is visiting the Pacific Northwest this spring and will be playing his first show in Seattle in over a year and a half.
In this one-off performance, he’ll be previewing songs from the concept record he’s working on, titled Does The Land Remember Me? before jetting back to Jerusalem to work more on the record, eat copious amounts of falafel and enjoy the 85 degree weather that will be waiting for him.
Have a question about what it’s like writing a concept record about Israel or about daily life in Jerusalem? Shoot an email to benfisherband@gmail.com and it’ll be discussed at the show.
