BenBen is a Brooklyn-based animator, producer, and hobbit sweetheart who makes riff-driven mystical folk rock with a twist of magical escapism. BenBen’s otherworldly high tenor voice, a spellbinding and earnest force, resonates with kindred spirits who seek beauty, authenticity, and deep connection beyond the ordinary. He performs live with BenBen + Friends, an international orchestral ensemble anchored by Ben's dear friend + collaborator, UK-based cellist Isabel Williamson. Since November 2023, BenBen + Friends has toured extensively across both U.S. coasts and Europe, with performances spanning from Ireland to Latvia. BenBen’s first band Arizona was a mid-00s underground indie darling, touring with artists as diverse as Band of Horses and The Indigo Girls. With his last band, New Beard, BenBen worked with legendary Swedish psychedelic-rock genius Gustav Ejstes of Dungen. After contributing vocals to a number of her albums, BenBen co-wrote the single “Garden Dove” with indie-folk goddess Samantha Crain for her beloved 2020 album “A Small Death.” As a shy, but super-extroverted introvert, BenBen's art is like a personal invitation to an otherworldly indie rock wonderland for sensitive souls who seek beauty in overlooked places… (and still like to rock).
