Mutual Benefit: Restless And Roving Chamber Pop

Soundcheck | Jan 7, 2014

Mutual Benefit is the stage name of songwriter Jordan Lee and a rotating group of collaborators. Lee is an Ohio native, who has spent time in Austin, Boston, and now Brooklyn, and the light touch at the heart of Mutual Benefit derives from Lee's restless travels across the country. Lee spent several years releasing compositions via cassette, refining his sound away from the limelight, until his most recent effort garnered such enthusiastic attention that it was ushered to a full release. 

Hear Mutual Benefit play songs from the resulting 2013 record, Love's Crushing Diamond
