Benj Rowland - Community Garden (2022) [Hi-Res]

Born and raised in the Peterborough area, Benj Rowland is the singer-songwriter and instrumentalist behind the well loved Canadian folk duo Mayhemingways.

Having toured across Canada many times as part of a band, Community Garden is Benj’s first solo album released under his own name.

Recorded and produced by Joel Plaskett at his Dartmouth Studio, the album features a collection of songs that speak to small town Ontario and tell stories about the life of an independent Canadian musician.

The Ballad of the Pig's Ear (track 2) is a heartfelt tribute to a well loved bar that served Peterborough for over 100 years. The song recently won the Don Skuce Memorial Music Collective Songwriting Award (January 2022)
