Yep. Started in 2007, Ribbons of Song is the collaborative songwriting and recording project of Ben Scott-Brandt. We make a new record every five years or so.

Dunebeats is the new full-length album from Ribbons of Song. It’s a celebration of our swirling relationships between realities and across time, with oaks, eagles, ancestors, the sun and the moon.

Inspired by time in the sand dunes at Lake Michigan, these songs are a way to grow and deepen our connection to the land and these beings within our bodies, to celebrate our aliveness among a million other alivenesses.

Ben is grateful to the musicians and friends who graciously lent their talents to help this record come alive between 2022-2025. Thank you for listening!

Dunebeats drops April 8, 2025.

The record is available on all major streaming services, including Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Soundcloud, and Bandcamp.
