Pulse is composer/guitarist Ben Levin’s third and most expansive release to date, featuring an ambitious structure, dynamic sound design and a slew of well-developed motifs.
Ben Levin Group are following up their successful CD Release Show with the first leg of the Pulse of a Nation Tour this January, with additional dates to follow. Check the band’s site for more details.
