Eight Gigs: Marco Benevento

For those who have never witnessed Marco Benevento live, expect a set riddled with keyboard calisthenics and some jam-based rock that lights up the dance floor. Already known from touring and playing countless festivals, Benevento also has a history in the New York jazz scene even at the young age of 39. This Wednesday’s show will feature songs from his latest concept album, The Story Of Fred Short. One looking for inspiration need not look any further than his musical exercises staged in a live setting.
