   Ben’s “Song for Barbara” was featured in Tracy Kidder’s new book Rough Sleepers in which Kidder recounts the work of Jim O’Connell, Barbara McInnis and others for Boston Health Care for the Homeless. Ben worked as a volunteer with Barbara in the 1980’s for the Stonesoup Mobile Food Service when Barbara was a nurse at the Pine Street Inn. He recently returned to Haley House in Boston for a concert with Charlie King.
NEW LOCATION
Ben  has relocated to western MA (see Contact) where he continues to offer concerts, workshops and services to communities throughout New England and along the east Coast.
HOUSE CONCERTS R US!
Ben has been increasingly offering house concerts both near and far. The house concert is a wonderful and simple way of having Ben come into your home for an intimate evening of music, refreshment and community building. If you have been hoping Ben might visit your area with a concert and have a space (or know someone who does) that can accommodate 20-30 people, please be in touch!

“LOOKIN’ FOR A RAINBOW” is now available on CD! Ben’s popular children’s recording, in addition to being available on cassette, is now a CD. Favorites such as Johnny Appleseed, Apple Picker’s Reel, A Place in the Choir, Emily the Cow, This Little Light and, of course, Lookin’ for a Rainbow, are part of this live recording which also contains Ben’s reflections on “Bringing Music Across Generations.” SEE WEBSITE STORE TO ORDER
