BEN HARPER – Wide Open Light – LP – Vinyl

LP -Black Vinyl with Printed Inner.

Wide Open Lightis a family of songs Ive written. Ive selected them with the care one might put into a personal photo album. To that effect, Id call it a sonic family photo album, each track a close relative to the next. The story behind this record is simple. I have been writing songs now for over 30 years. Its what I long to do, love to do, and at times feel I need to do, and hope to continue doing until the ink runs dry and the notes fade. But for now, Wide Open Light. Deliberately minimalist, the songs themselves do as much of the heavy lifting as the production. (produced by myself, and my longtime collaborators Danny Kalb and Jason Mozersky) – Ben Harper
