04. I Will Rise

If you’ve never heard of Lost Dog Street Band or of Benjamin Tod, then you’re in for a treat. I think it’s easy for me to say that Lost Dog is hands down one of my favorite bands. “I Will Rise” is Benjamin Tod’s solo album which puts on display his incredible song writing skills. There's a particular rawness to this album which your exposed to just seconds into the album when Benjamin messes up the first two takes of the first song. Between heartache, substance abuse, self doubt, and pure honesty, Benjamin leaves it all out there with this album.
