Ben Langdon from Melbourne brass-folk band The Bean Project is Katie’s guest this week, chatting about the band’s excellent debut CD, Naked Trees, and playing some of his favourite tracks by other artists. The Bean Project is an acoustic quintet that blends folk, jazz and singer-songwriter styles. It was named the Folk Alliance of Australia’s Artist of the Year in 2016 and has been described as an ‘odd marriage of James Taylor and The Cat Empire’. In 2017 the band has appeared at the Port Fairy Folk Festival, National Folk Festival and Folk Alliance International (USA), and has toured Australia’s east coast in support of the new album.
