2 Sides of Ben Harper

(Machine Shop) Ben Harper is set to release his seventh studio album on March 21st entitled Both Sides of the Gun. It's the first time this talented singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist has ever gone with the double-disc format. At the end of his recording process, he realized that he had chosen nine harder songs and nine ballad-based songs for the album, which conveniently summed up the structure of the album and its eventual title.

This master stylist has taken sole production credit although in normal Ben Harper style, he bounced between recording on his own, with other musicians, and with his long-time partners, the Innocent Criminals. The album raises the bar to new heights for Ben Harper with his newfound sense of "absolute fearlessness- just diving into a song and ripping it wide open, with a lot of one-take vocals and guitar solos that are nasty, loose, raw, immediate."
