DESCRIPTION:

Bennet LeMaster wrote “Dead Weight” from a hard-earned clarity that only comes after living through excuses, empty promises, and constantly defending someone who never really showed up. She spent too long clinging to the good moments, telling herself his intentions mattered more than his actions. The song is a reminder that walking away wasn’t a failure—it was a win, and sometimes you don’t save the relationship, you save yourself.

Bennet LeMaster makes outsider pop for the end times—moody, cinematic, and laced with just enough magic to haunt you. Her songs live in the quiet moments after collapse: candlelit confessions, soft apocalypses, and whispered truths you didn’t know you needed to hear. Based in Nashville (but far from country), Bennet writes for the loners, the lovers, and anyone who’s ever danced through disaster. Think bedroom pop with dirt under its nails and a spell on its lips.
