For the first time in eight months my band and I had the pleasure of performing two storyteller showcases in Newport, R.I. You guys showed up for two nights and to see your faces meant the world to us. Writing, singing and performing music is one of few things in this life that I find a profound level of enjoyment in... and to know I have an audience fuels my desire to press on. Thank you for listening and being the very best part of our music... Heres a song that inspires me to love and smile called Happy Does by the great Kenny Chesney. Enjoy!

This unplugged acoustic version of Ben OConnor's single, "New Port" was filmed in an old sugar ruin on the U.S. Virgin Island of St. John. "New Port" sings to the restless souls bound for the horizon... as being still quickly becomes detrimental to the spirit of a wanderer. While residing on St. John through the winter months of 2020, Ben performs this song to reflect on his current state of "in-between ports". From the small New England town of Newport, Rhode Island, this song not only serves as a travelers motivator but a reminder that there is always a place on the map to call home.
