Multi-instrumentalist, recording artist and alternative singer-songwriter, Ben Myers, has been writing his unique brand of introspective songs for the better part of two decades. His sound is tinged with psychedelia and spans multiple genres. One reviewer noted that lyrically he writes in a "shadow poet" style which allows for multiple meanings and interpretations. He has released 16 albums to date, with the newest Prismatic Moon releasing May of '26. Ben currently resides in the Kansas City area.
I wanted to do something a little different for this project. I completely changed the way in which I write songs. Typically I would sit at the guitar or piano and write a song as a complete whole. This time I found myself starting with drum tracks then layering bass and piano over top then re-arranging the pieces. I would try to do the fewest amount of takes of all instruments and vocals to hopefully capture the spontaneity of the original inspiration. There is no acoustic guitar on this album (and very little electric guitar), which may seem odd as it has become something I've been known for. I wanted the process to feel fresh and fun and somewhat "live" and hopefully this translates on the record. Prismatic Moon is an experiment of new sounds and ideas which I hope will inspire your own creativity.
