GRUFF, ECLECTIC SONGS AND STORIES ABOUT LIFE IN THE MODERN RURAL WEST
Ben Larson developed his storyteller ways over years of hitchhiking and wandering with his guitar from Australia to Newfoundland and a thousand places in between. He lives in a hand-built homestead in Philipsburg with his public school teacher wife and two loony cowdogs. He alternates his days between carpentry and weaving his observations into gruff newspaper columns and eclectic, yet deeply poetic country songs.
Several albums of his music can be found on all streaming services, including his most recent release “New Tales From Old Montana.” In support of his new album, Ben’s on a musical mission to bring his western folk music to all 56 counties of Montana 37 down, 20 to go!
Our chance meeting of Ben was a result of happenstance. He knows someone that knows me that happened to mention our podcast online somewhere. He gave us a listen and reached out a few months ago, we finally had the chance to meet in person in Elko at the National Cowboy Poetry Gathering where we made arrangements for him to stop by the house for a quick visit. Hope you enjoy it!
