New Release: John Praw – Ben Willis

“Ben Willis” is a departure from the norm for John Praw. Returning to his more experimental roots, this EP consists of a single four-movement piece created by request for the Madison-based musician of the same name. “Ben Willis” is inspired by many nights spent listening to improvisational creations by the Weather Duo, Lovely Socialite Mrs. Thomas W. Phipps, and more.
