Smoke was a band from the Cabbagetown neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia that dissolved in 1999 with the death of writer/singer Benjamin. Benjamin was the subject of Peter Sillen and Jem Cohen's documentary ''Benjamin Smoke'' (2000). == History == The group formed during the demise of the Opal Foxx Quartet, starting with Benjamin on vocals, Bill Taft on cornet and banjo, Brian Halloran on cello, and Todd Butler on guitar. Coleman Lewis and Tim Campion later joined on guitar and drums, respectively, followed by Will Fratesi on drums. Their last show was New Year's Eve, 1998. Benjamin died January 29, 1999. Though many of the band's CDs are apparently out of print, some copies may be currently available at online record stores. Bill Taft and Will Fratesi went on to form Hubcap City, who are still active in the Atlanta area. Former guitarist, Coleman Lewis, died from a heroin overdose in May 2014. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Smoke (American band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
