Music for Free on the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route is a new music and film project I am launching to celebrate the 20th anniversary of this iconic American corridor and the people who support it.

SUPPORT MY WORK THROUGH PATREON

Group-Ride_Ben_Weaver.jpg

I seek to foster a deeper sense of community by working to constantly expand the possibilities for who my work can engage with. It is important to me to offer my concerts/engagements free to the public as often as possible. I work in alternative spaces and seek partnerships with organizations whose visions align with my work. My deepest, and most meaningful connections are with individuals, which is why I am here. The songs and poems I write/perform work to dispel illusions of division. They hold open space for the wisdom that sits within the trees, rivers, rocks, plants and animals to reignite the inherent stories of wildness and mutuality living inside us all.

... I have a set coming up for the @mnmusicco MN Music Summit 2020: Amplifying Biz Essentials on Sunday June 21st (which is also the solstice).

... "When my imagination is led by water, I am rushed to all of the diverse places they move through. So many of which are unseen to humans. I’ve drawn a notebook full of the myriad shapes water takes on as they fill space. A playbill of the roles and characters they become and transform.” From a new essay I wrote titled The Earth is Deeper than they are Tall.
