All kinds of Folk music: roots, indie, rock, Celtic, atmospheric, light, dark. I find it really hard to dedicate myself to one specific genre. 
    Ever since I was young I've wanted to learn the rules of music on my own, at one point I even considered looking at theory, scales, and formulas to be cheating. 
    I'm over that now, but I don't regret it one bit.

The Benevolent Folk are the result of a musical experiment. Two years ago Sully bought a Ukulele.  In an attempt to learn how to play it, he set out to write 30 Songs in 30 Days.  This arduous, yet fruitful process, became known as The Ukulele Odyssey.  

​The 30 songs were written and recorded.  They then refused to be left alone.  A group of 25 musicians and artists from many genres came together to bring them to life.

After "The Odyssey", there were left, The Benevolent Folk and they are best described as Vagabond Blues Folk.

First I wrote the poems.  Then I made up a melody.  Then played it and sang it and recorded it.
