Broken is the latest release from ‘Benjamin Jayne,’ a project that is
sustained by Benjamin Wright out of Brattleboro, Vermont. The album was
recorded in Wright’s home studio, produced by him and Drew Skinner. It’s
being released by WhatAboutMusic as a digital download and via
streaming platforms on October 13.
Benjamin Jayne’s music has been compared to such acts as The National,
Nick Drake, as well as Beck, and his baritone vocals have been compared
to Leonard Cohen. However, his new record reveals an entirely new vocal
range. The music tends to be on the darker side, melancholic and
reflective, and is typically considered folk rock. Though he does use
interesting electronic elements and at times gets a little too heavy to be
called folk.
The latest album continues in the realm of melancholia. It primarily deals
with people trying to reconcile who they are now compared to who they
remember themselves to be before the current of time got a hold of them. It
is about seeing our reflection and being unrecognizable to ourselves and
then facing the challenge of unraveling all of the elements we have
wrapped ourselves in that don’t feel genuine. The album is seeking truth
and rebirth.
His work under Benjamin Jayne is a solo venture, but he does enjoy the
input and occasional song from his sister Amanda Jayne who is an artist
based out of Barcelona. He also consistently enlists Drew Skinner for
engineering and production, though Benjamin co-produces on all of the
albums.
Benjamin practices psychiatry by day at the country’s smallest hospital,
where he is the Director of Psychiatry. He also has a background in
performance and songwriting, having studied film scoring and jazz
performance at Berklee College of Music. He played in multiple bands over
the last two decades and worked as a professional multi-instrumentalist in
Los Angeles for a while before changing fields from music to psychiatry.
