Bendigo Fletcher
The Burl 375 Thompson Road, Lexington, Kentucky 40508
Ryan Anderson, the front man for the Louisville-based indie rock band Bendigo Fletcher, has been said to “craft the patchwork poetry of his lyrics by serenely observing the world around him, often while working his grocery-store day job or walking aimlessly in nature (a practice partly borrowed from the late poet Mary Oliver).” When his poignant lyrics are paired with the folk-laden harmonies, dreamy psychedelic ambiance and raw, whimsical energy of his band, the result is “a batch of story-songs graced with so much raw humanity, wildly offbeat humor and a transcendent sense of wonder.”
