Mutual Benefit’s Skip a Sinking Stone, a gorgeous collection of orchestral folk, focuses on the carefully plotted tours of a newly successful band and frontman Jordan Lee’s adopted home of New York. rdan Lee had quietly released six albums prior to 2013, so Mutual Benefit didn’t exactly come out of nowhere three years ago. But Love’s Crushing Diamond sounded like it did, Mutual Benefit remains in 2016: Lee’s still a wandering spirit surrounding himself with an orchestra of friends, recording in “forests, attics and hotel rooms”
“Getting Gone” is from Mutual Benefit’s ‘Skip a Sinking Stone’ out now on Mom+Pop / Transgressive Records.
