Ben The Performer
Ben has been performing since the age of 14. A multi-instrumentalist, he is at home either behind a keyboard or a drum kit, or playing guitars. He has participated in many band projects over the years, and has performed solo. A singer-songwriter, he has recorded 3 LPs of original material, the newest of which is set to be released this fall, if not earlier! Ben's voice is a smooth high tenor, and he prides himself on being an expert vocal mimic, being able to imitate many of classic rock's most bombastic front men. To give you an idea, check out the videos! . He is a solo dynamic performer that is comfortable performing in almost any setting. He plays acoustic guitar and piano, , setting off a mellow, coffeehouse vibe. Or, he can break out his vast library of self recorded (NOT Karaoke) tracks to crank up the energy of a full band performance.
I can perform sets of various styles of music, depending on the
atmosphere or attendees of your event/establishment. Below are
