Recording career

编辑

一个密西西比(One Mississippi)

编辑

他的处女座, 一个密西西比(One Mississippi), 于1996年在美国的维京唱片发布。在这张专辑里 Jason Falkner 提供了很多支持,但因为销量不佳,所以后来布兰丹被维京唱片公司所放弃。

拉帕尔克(Lapalco)

编辑

紧接着在2002年,这张专辑被发布了。这一次的唱片仍然没有得到很大的反映,但是也得到了相比一个密西西比每个国家版本总和的三倍的销售量。

专辑内的歌曲‘Good To Me’和Tiny Spark分别被英国电视剧 Teachers 选作第三季和第四季的背景音乐,并且收录到了官方专辑中。这首歌也被刻录到了白线条乐团的单曲专辑 Seven Nation Army的B面上去。并且电影情场算死草 (Along Came Polly) 和World's Greatest Dad也使用了一部分他的歌曲用作背景音乐。

在布兰丹为这张专辑巡演的时候,布兰丹还为英国的里丁&利兹音乐节 (Reading and Leeds Festivals)表演,并且在最后演唱了‘Jet Lag’一曲。这首歌曲与其他五首单曲一起发布在2003年拉帕尔克的再版中。

2003年的再版中,布兰丹还发布了歌曲‘Metarie’,由后来的乐队The Well Fed Boys演奏,这是布兰丹第一次发布完全由其他人写得歌曲。这意味着在过去他从未发表过非他本人撰写的歌曲。

爱情的多选一 (The Alternative to Love)

编辑

班森在2005年的时候发布了这张专辑,爱情的多选 (The Alternative to Love)。并且与他新的合作乐队The Stiff Tissues同时在美国、英国和欧洲地区进行了巡演。他以‘Spit It Out’得到了英国专辑排行榜第75名的成绩,同时为他赚来了一些名气。‘Cold Hands Warm Heart’和‘What I'm Looking For’在多个商业节目和电视剧中出现。

健谈者 (The Raconteurs)

编辑

他是乐队 The Raconteurs 的一员,队员包括杰克·怀特(Jack White)、杰克·劳伦斯(Jack Lawrence) 和帕德里克·基勒(Patrick Keeler)。他和怀特一起谱写曲子,2006年时在美国以健谈者乐队的名义发表了专辑Broken Boy Soldiers。2008年3月发表第二张专辑 Consolers of the Lonely。班森同时也是The GreenhornesThe Nice Device、The Mood Elevator (The Well Fed Boys的另外一个名字)、Whirlwind Heatthe Stiff Tissues的制作人。

我熟悉的老朋友(My Old, Familiar Friend)

编辑

Benson's fourth album was My Old, Familiar Friend. In March 2007, a handful of demos from Benson's upcoming album were posted on his Myspace. "Feel Like Taking You Home" was the first of these demos to appear. Around the same time the demos of "Forget", "Poised And Ready" and "Go Nowhere" leaked onto the internet. Later he posted more songs on his MySpace including "Lesson Learned", "Eyes On the Horizon", and "Untitled". Dean Fertita, who played keyboards with the Raconteurs on tour and now is with Queens of the Stone Age and The Dead Weather, plays piano on all the Benson demos, with all other instruments played by Benson.

In October 2007 two new songs, "Purely Automatic" and "Will it Keep," were published on Benson's official website, presumably finished songs from the album. In November 2008, he uploaded a new song, "Playdown", on his Myspace, but it was quickly taken down. He soon put it back up along with another new song called "No One Else But You". Soon after, the songs "O My Love" and "New Words Of Wisdom" were added to his page. Later he added "I'll Never Tell", "Happy Most of the Time", "Only in a Dream" (cover of Young Hines), and "Diamond" on his official MySpace page and he also added "Open Your Eyes" on his Reverb Nation page. In mid March 2009 Brendan put a collaboration with his girlfriend Britt, "The Hunter Gets Captured by the Game" (cover of The Marvelettes) on his Myspace page. [来源请求]

On March 18, 2009, KRCW played a new song "A Whole Lot Better" and on May 10, 2009 KRCW played another new song entitled "Garbage Day" both presumably finished songs off his fourth album. The title "My Old, Familiar Friend" and the track list were revealed on June 4, 2009. The album was released on August 18, 2009.[2] My Old, Familiar Friend was produced by Gil Norton according to his MySpace page. He is backed by the Features on some of the record. [来源请求]

Collaboration with Ashley Monroe

编辑

In late 2008, Ashley Monroe collaborated with The Raconteurs and Ricky Skaggs on The Raconteurs single, "Old Enough", which was released in bluegrass form, and as a music video which is currently in rotation on CMT.

In early February 2009, two songs entitled "The Things I Do" and "Grey" appeared on Monroe's MySpace along with this message:

"Hey everyone! I just wanted to write ya a quick note to tell you I have put up some new songs you guys haven't heard. I have been working with Brendan Benson ... who I met on the set on The Raconteurs video shoot... and I am SOOO EXCITED about the music we have been making. I can't wait to share more! The two songs I posted of ours are "The Things I Do" and "Grey"... hope you love them as much as I do!"

Well & Goode

编辑

Benson teamed with Raconteurs touring member Mark Watrous (Gosling, Loudermilk) in October 2010 to release a single as the fictional duo "Midas Well" and "Upton O. Goode". Well & Goode's debut single was a 7" vinyl record and digital download, and featured the songs "Spray Tan" and "Two Birds".[3]

What Kind Of World

编辑

What Kind of World was released on April 21, 2012. It was released on his own new label Readymade Records[4] in the USA, and on the indie label Lojinx in Europe.[5] The album was recorded at "Welcome to 1979" Studios in Nashville, Tennessee and recorded entirely in analog.[6] What Kind of World peaked at No. 7 on the UK Indie album chart in the week of release.
