The multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter Brendan Benson in 2009 got to go back to what he started out as, a solo artist. Solo artist was a weird thing to call him considering he wasn’t in a band until after his first album. But even that band, The Mood Elevators, was just an alter-ego project. The Raconteurs, that of course is a different story. About an year and a half after the release of the second Raconteurs album, Brendan hit us with My Old, Familiar Friend. The album was recorded in 2007, in-between the two Raconteurs full-lengths. In the past Brendan did all the production work himself, but brought in Gil Norton and Dave Sardy to help with the album’s recording task. Currently, Brendan is putting finishing touches on his new album in Nashville, TN. He is gunning to have out next year.
