| BEN SOLLEE & DANIEL MARTIN MOORE are both Kentucky natives and songwriters. Ben is the genre-bending cellist who spends his spare time championing issues close to his heart. Daniel is from Cold Springs, KY and after serving in the Peace Corps, he won over Sub Pop Records in 2007 with an unsolicited demo of deceptively simple, soft songs, and found himself with a record deal. They will be releasing their first collaboration, a CD called Dear Companion and produced by My Morning Jacket’s Jim James. |
