Ben Scott Brandt - Cue the Music!

Music is an important part of every production- it creates the experience, sets the tone- and helps us create memories. I needed a soundtrack for "J Schwanke's Life in Bloom" and I was talking about it to my hair stylist- I've had the same one for over 10 years...Ben Scott Brandt- I've followed him from location to location- because he does such a great job with my specific hairstyle- and he is one of the kindest, funniest, most refreshing humans I have ever met... and he does my hair perfectly!I was heading through TSA the other day- and the agent said- "Hey you're the Grown Up Jack-Jack" (from the Incredibles...) I'll take that...and  I used to have a friend in Montreal that would always ask me "Where is your little dog?"... (a reference to Tin-Tin)... so the hair is memorable- and part of my persona... it has been since I was a kid- and I've just kept it going .... thanks to Ben!Back to the story- Ben is an accomplished musician and composer- he's given me CD's over the years- and I play them and the same vibe- that Ben emotes each day- is part of his music- So I thought- it might be a "good fit" to have him compose and create the soundtrack for J Schwanke's Life in Bloom- BINGO!Here's a link to his website-  www.benscottbrandt.comPeople are describing the show- as a "relaxing escape into the world of flowers" ... I like that- and the music Ben created sets the tone - and creates that vibe. I was especially excited when we were talking about "FlowerCocktailHour" Featured in each show... and Ben said... "I'm thinking of bringing in an Accordion..."  Ooooooo... he was speaking my language... and I love the "Flower Cocktail" Theme.The Truth be told- Ben wrote a couple different approaches for "Life in Bloom" and I love them all- so you'll hear them as we progress... Ben is one of those Amazing Souls- that jump off the page and into your Heart.
