Conversations Missed 4:33 — — — — — ?Conversations Missed,? the haunting EP by electric troubadour Benny Marchant, is the sound of a hopeful heart that?s bruised but still beating. Painting the stages of love and loss, Benny?s emotional alternative folk-rock, sweetened with pedal steel, a horn section and his own delicate guitar, is his coming of age as a solo artist. Los Angeles Magazine agrees, calling him ?A cross between Tom Petty and Pearl Jam (no, really),? and adding, ?Marchant?s sound mixes acoustic and electric guitar and is catchy and upbeat?and with lyrics like ?I don?t want to dream tonight about conversations missed/gonna hold on to the light,? his songs are both touching and relatable.? The 5-track EP was produced by Joe Chiccarelli (Radiohead, White Stripes, My Morning Jacket, The Shins) and recorded with band mates Walker Gibson (keys/guitar/vocals), Hubie Wang (electric guitar), Spencer Wright (bass) and Steve Robinson (drums).
