Brooklyn-based pianist and sonic explorer Marco Benevento first came to national attention as one half of the NYC downtown experimental noisemakers, The Benevento-Russo Duo. Over the last two years, however, he's been turning heads with his post-jazz trio that merges indie pop melody obsession with fierce improvisations and a wide-eyed pursuit of analog-drenched aural texture. His new LP Me Not Me focuses its attention on songs by George Harrison, Leonard Cohen and My Morning Jacket among others.
