Hailing from the coast of South Florida, Benjamin Neil began making music as a teenager, fronting a locally successful pop-punk band and working with various production companies, where he quickly learned the necessary skills to grow a music career. He began his solo career in response to the need for entertainment in the bars, restaurants, and coffeehouses of West Palm Beach. Utilizing a Boss RC-300 loop station and Roland SPD-1 kick pedal, his unique blend of traditional singer/songwriter pop, ‘indie exuberance’, and ‘raw, rhythmic sensibility’, coupled with his ability to capture the sound of the city, earned him residencies at various locations and the foundation to take his music further afield. www.benjaminneilmusic.com
