The latest album from the Morning Benders, “Big Echo”, is set to release on March 9th.  For the week leading up to it’s release, the band has made the album available on their website for free listening.  Don’t know the Morning Benders?  Well, this is a pretty good chance to get to know them, seeing that it is free and all.  The Berkely, CA crew has a Dr. Dogish vibe to them, with a sound falling somewhere in between the Beach Boys and the Shins.

The first track off the album “Excuses”, which I mistook for a Dr. Dog song, is also available for free download on the band’s website.

We’ll follow with a full review of the album upon it’s release next week, but for now, lets just enjoy the free stream.
