Ben Caplan and The Casual Smokers

Ben Caplan & The Casual Smokers was first formed as a trio (guitar, cello, and violin) during the cold Halifax winter of 2006. Since then, the Casual Smokers have undergone a a great number of changes in members and instrumentation, with a list of almost 40 alumni.

In the summer of 2009, The Casual Smokers went on the road to celebrate the release of a live EP, recorded in the Chapel at King's College in November 2008. The EP, originally intended to be a limited special release sold out in a few months, and is presently on it's fourth pressing. It is available in Halifax at TAZ and Obsolete Records.

The band is presently in the process or preparing it's first full length album, slated to come out late summer 2011.
