Ben Park Drive. Is it a place? A Philosophy? Maybe both. Undeniably, it represents rock music packed with soaring melodies and emotion. Songs that upon first listen will grab you and not let go. Rising from the ashes of several former Denver based rock bands, Ben Park Drive emerges as much more than a sum of its parts. They came together late in 2002 to begin crafting what would become their debut album "Signs Are Everywhere".
Ben Park Drive enlisted the guidance of industry veteran Ken Lewis (David Byrne, Public Enemy, Mariah Carey) to produce the album. Ken set out to help the band realize their musical vision and began a long process of writing, pre-production and revision. Ken says "I wouldn't let the band go into the studio for 8 months. They were impatient, but every time we got together or they would send me a new song, I saw such tremendous growth. I knew what this album could sound like long before they did, and I wanted to give them time to develop and grow as writers and performers. The finished album far exceeded even my lofty expectations. I think this is a hit waiting to happen."
Their album was recorded in Nashville and mixed in New York City.
