North Vancouver native Ben Rogers combines storytelling steeped in the classic folk traditions of Dylan and Springsteen with the gravelly voice of a chainsmoking Tom Waits. “Cowboys and Indians” tells a tale of forbidden love in the Old West and its consequences, and you can almost smell the whiskey fumes mixing with the guitar chords. If you’re looking for a new artist with some serious singer-songwriter chops married with old school narratives, check out the video, sit down and relax, and let Ben Rogers tell you a story.
