Ben Gallaher To Release Acoustic Project In August

/by


Ben Gallaher will release his latest studio project, Ben Gallaher: Taylor Gold, on Aug. 7 via  QHMG/Stone Country Records.

Produced by Neil Thrasher and Patrick Thrasher, the seven-track project features acoustic re-imaginings of songs from Gallaher’s sophomore album, Time. Gallaher co-wrote three of the tracks alongside Tony Martin, Wendell Mobley, Kelley Lovelace, Josh Thompson and more.

“Acoustic guitar was my first love and it’s what I’ve played the longest. I’ve played Taylor guitars specifically since 2011 and when I held my new Taylor Gold 514 for the first time, it just felt like home,” says Gallaher. “That guitar had a heartbeat in it that wouldn’t let me put it down. It was full of untapped inspiration that I was discovering in real time. The more I played it, the more I wanted to reimagine and strip these songs down to their rawest, most organic form – and to create recordings that reflect how they sound when performed on my Taylor Gold guitar, which is why it became the name of the project.”

Gallaher has upcoming shows in Connecticut and Tennessee.
