Ben Sollee Learning To Bend on 180g Vinyl LP! 

Limited To Only 500 Copies - Pressed on White Vinyl! 

Ideas of human struggle and perseverance are central to celloist/songwriter Ben Sollee's debut album Learning To Bend. The tracks "A Few Honest Words" and the adaptation of Sam Cooke's "A Change is Gonna Come" both take relevance with the state of the current political landscape while the playful, soul track "How To See the Sun Rise" and the vulnerable yet insistent "It's Not Impossible" balance the album gracefully.

Sollee was named one of NPR's 'Top Ten Unknown Artists of the Year' in 2007. His distinctive cello technique and soulful voice have been marinating for years in his work with avant-garde bluesman Otis Taylor, The Sparrow Quartet (featuring Bela Fleck) and on the internationally known Woodsongs Old Time Radio Hour.
