Marco Benevento - "Greenpoint" Live at Telluride Blues & Brews Festival
This guy is a genius. With 88 keys and a wild and curious imagination, Marco Benevento has created a keyboard style that is all his own, using sound shaping tricks and sheer talent. It would be easy to classify his music as progressive jazz, but that just scratches the surface of his work. The man who had his Berklee College of Music degree handed to him by none other than David Bowie has performed in his own collectives – Benevento-Russo Duo, Garage A Trois – as well as Joe Russo’s Almost Dead and Bustle In Your Hedgerow, a band that performs fresh interpretations of Led Zeppelin’s music.
And now, watch the performance of “Greenpoint” - a track which Benevento said slowly came together over the course of two years - live from the Telluride Blues & Brews Festival Main Stage.
