The creator of Said Sara, David Benson, takes us on an adventure with his song “Sea,”. Benson is a native of San Francisco, California, and his musical upbringing was as eclectic as it gets.
A fiery representation of Benson’s musical complexity, “Said Sara” is a masterpiece. He was raised on 70s singer-songwriter greats like Joni Mitchell, Cat Stevens, and Joan Baez. But he continued to develop as a musician. He became heavily involved in the metal and punk scenes of the 1980s and 1990s, even playing drums for the death metal band Acephalix.
The “sea” is where all these currents meet and meld into one. It’s a snapshot of Benson’s evolution as a musician, from his early folk influences to his later forays into punk and goth. With “Sea,” Said Sara demonstrates the limitless potential of musical research and demonstrates that true artistic expression is unrestrained.
A continuation of this musical voyage, where instinct and emotion drive the way and originality knows no limitations, may be expected when Said Sara gets ready for live performances in 2023.
