Before there was Ben + Vesper, there was Ben, and there was Vesper.  They each created all kinds of wonderful projects, musical and otherwise, that made many many people happy.  We're proud to feature one of those projects, Vesper's 2003 album 'Comfort', as a Sounds Familyre Related Release.

Also, we wanted you all to be aware that Vesper (and Ben) have a new line of handmade clothes!  Read more about it, or just cut to the chase!

Hello Everyone! 

We are very excited to introduce to you our good friends Ortolan (pronounced "ord-a-lin").  They recorded four songs with Daniel Smith this past summer, and the music is just so doggone good we would be remiss if we didn't call it to your attention.  Take a listen here!

We'll have more information about the group real soon.  In the meantime, to satisfy your curiosity about just what an ortolan actually is, click here (when this act is the talk of the town, you'll be ahead of the game with Ortolan trivia!).
