Live shows by Samm Bennett and his various ensembles and collaborations
Hello friends, Samm Bennett here, hope to see you at one or more of these upcoming shows!
SUN 8/5 : Bennett-Kuroda
at Grand Arbre restaurant, Setagaya, Tokyo
Open 18:00 - Start 19:00 - Entry: PASS THE HAT!
The Bennett-Kuroda duo will performing two full sets of original songs and covers at the Grand Arbre, a casual style French restaurant which has done very well with its music series, curated by my buddy and blues/folk enthusiast Jean-paul Richard. This will be my third or fourth time to play there, and I really enjoy the place and the wonderful staff. The atmosphere is great, the food divine. The venue is located right next to Shoin-jinja-mae station on the Tokyu Setagaya line.

SUN 8/19 : Bennett-Kuroda
at What The Dickens, Ebisu, Tokyo (Roob Bldg., 4th floor)
music from 8-ish to 11-ish - entry: FREE!
Ah yes, the good ol' Dickens! Where streams of ale are flowin', where the steak and chicken pie-lovin' folk are goin', and where, on Sunday 19th, yours truly and guitarist Daisuke Kuroda will be serenading the glorious drunken crowd with our tender songs of murder and whisky, runaway trains and window panes! Plenty of my original songs will be performed, but also a slew of newly worked up cover tunes by familiar artists such as ye olde Beatles, CCR, Dylan (you know, that Nobel Prize dude), Merle Haggard, Kris Kristofferson and lord knows who else. Come on out and catch summa the free air conditioning!
