Music & Mr. Bender

Photo not by me, prolly by Ian. 

I love how talented my friends are. Ian Bender, a friend from back home, is no exception. Ian is the one who introduced me to Mumford & Sons as well as his newest share- The Civil Wars. Besides having outstanding taste in music, he's constantly amazing me with his own voice (which has a slightly ethereal quality to it) and musical skills. Oh, and his mad rock climbing skills- but that's another post.

Now it is time to share his music with you. He just started a little place online to share his songs and already has four recorded & online... and if you like 'em you can have 'em- free. Here's a sample:


Now go check out the rest- and keep the page bookmarked as he puts together more music... it's sure to come.


**Also, I have to add this picture because it is my all-time favorite of Ian, which he's probably sick of hearing. 
(again, not by me, I just stole it for the purposes of this blog and because it's just awesome.)
(I mean cuz, come on, it is...)
