Los Angeles, CA – September 13, 2013 – Today, Soundgarden bassist Ben Shepherd gives a first look at his solo acoustic performance with the video for the song “Collide” off of his debut solo album In Deep Owl on RollingStone.com. PRESS HERE<http://www.rollingstone.com/music/videos/hbs-ben-shepherd-takes-acoustic-turn-in-collide-premiere-20130913> to watch. The video was directed by Brad Strain, and was filmed at Ben’s home in Seattle, WA. A distant track with a commanding bass riff that grounds the listeners into Shepherd’s sympathetic moaning lyrics, “Collide” features a hauntingly deep croon that rumbles over the twang treble of a mandolin. Consequence of Sound said, “’Collide’ draws you into its inner sanctum and keeps you spellbound, firmly holding you in place without you ever realizing it.”

Ben Shepherd released In Deep Owl on August 27th, 2013 on his own label INDIRI LTD. The collection has received wide critical praise. SPIN said “Ben Shepherd continues to show his range as a solo artist with his new track "Keystone." Whereas "Baron Robber" was a psych-rock assault and "Collide" offered up dark folk, the latest from the Seattle-based songwriter's upcoming solo debut In Deep Owl is a plodding, bari sax-enhanced dirge — the perfect theme song for a drifter, with Shepherd's vocals showing getting gruff over the grunged-up guitar-play.”
