  • Bio

    In January of 2009, Neil Benjamin and Ryan Hamilton stepped into a basement in Queens, New York. Without having a sense of what the music would sound like or who would be playing what instrument, they almost immediately created their first song, "Statehoarders". It became the precedent of chemistry that Columboid (named before the first practice) would establish and a full set of dirty primal-synth new wave minimalism followed suit. After an initial stint as a two-piece, Hamilton (Keys,Vocals) and Benjamin (Drums,Vocals) soon added Russell Higbee (Hamilton's PA childhood friend, ex-Coyote band mate, and Man-Man member) on Bass. No strangers to all things DIY, they recorded on Benjamin's laptop in December of '09 and released the songs as their debut cassette tape 'Cruise On your Own', now available digitally as well. Their first proper studio recorded release 'We Were One' is set for release by La Société Expéditionnaire. Columboid consists of past and/or present members of many outfits, most notably Coyote, Man-Man, Lewis and Clarke, Vaz, and Icy Demons.

    The Apprentice presents this work wordless, naive, and among a silent choir (a collected choir of people who are energetically and physically present but sonically null.) I am learning to be as an apprentice. AComme Un Apprenti que j'apprends être artiste, une femme, un parler français concis, le c'est la langue de sondage la plus douce, la langue d'amour, et enfin des artistes la  tradition romantique. S'il vous plaît me donner quelque reponse, les idées, l'amour, les questions, la critique, et un hasard quant à mon message au monde.  L'amour et Allume, Teaadora As an ApprenticeI am learning to be an artist, a woman, a succinct and fluent French speaker, it is the softest sounding language, the language of love, and of the artists romantic tradition. Please give me some reponse, ideas, love, questions, critique, and a chance regarding my mess
