Louisiana singer/songwriter <a href="spotify:artist:6UdebN2JMWYD00EjPkF6Ri">Benjy Davis</a> formed the Benjy Davis Project as a folk-rock duo in Baton Rouge in 2001. Originally, the group members were <a href="spotify:artist:6UdebN2JMWYD00EjPkF6Ri">Davis</a> and drummer Mic Capdevielle. Eventually, the outfit expanded into a six-piece with the addition of Anthony Rushing (violin, mandolin, vocals), Jonathan Lawhun (guitar, banjo), Brett Bolden (bass) (later replaced by Matt Rusnak), and <a href="spotify:artist:0zwktRkdtjFn2F8v9kUdlF">Michael Galasso</a> (harmonica, keyboards, vocals). The Benjy Davis Project built up a following while touring nationally as a support act to <a href="spotify:artist:0hEurMDQu99nJRq8pTxO14">John Mayer</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4UuoJfJ9UybJft7a8E6UHX">Better Than Ezra</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:714osTgzZrkyf3SGjggpfY">the North Mississippi Allstars</a>, as well as playing such prominent local shows as the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. The group self-released its first album, More Than Local (April 20, 2002), and an EP, The Practice Sessions (May 4, 2004). Bogalusa issued their second full-length album, The Angie House, on September 27, 2005, and Real Records stepped in to handle their third, Dust, which appeared on September 18, 2007. ~ William Ruhlmann, Rovi
