   About Ben Ferri
Hi, I'm Ben Ferri-a singer/songwriter from the South-West. I play acoustic and electric guitar, drawing inspiration from artists such as J.J Cale, Joe Pass, Hendrix and many more. Currently I am working on recording solo material and working on a new band project which will be reggae/funk/rock fusion, all of which will be online soon! I have over two years live gigging experience on the pub/club/showcase circuit and have been enjoying good feedback so far. I use a late 80's Squire Strat, a Moondog acoustic, and a Boss RC-20 Loop Station. realeditorbest profile toolsrealeditorbest profile tools

Dear Ben Ferri

Every time that we listen or write music... play an instrument... dance... act in a play... or work in some audio/image/video engineering process... Something is healing inside...

When we share it with friends... Something is healing all over...

Love can drive... in a simple way... everything

Have a lot of smiles... this weekend...

We are connected

Hello Benji,
Im back home from being on the road going to Festivals & camps this summer, connecting with beautiful people & musicians feeling the cosmic energy of festivals.

I have been doing Bodhran workshops at some of the festivals, giving people the inspiration & energy of playing the bodhran, feeding the rhythms of Mother Earth to connect oneself with the bodhran as a channel to find rhythm within oneself. I have had a cosmic expierance of passing on the energy of playing the bodhran to teach & feel the vibration of the drums.

My journey of playing my drums in drum circles around festivals has been an enlightening & cosmic expierance, connecting with other drummers & the vibration of Mother Earth, the Sun & Moon.

My truly highs of my journey has been The Rainbow 2000 Music Camp, The Out of the Ordinary Festival, The Coedhills Equinox Celebrations & Summer Solstice at Avebury Stone Circle. These places & expierances i have had will remain in my heart & spirit deep in my soul forever, eternal in spirit.


MY HEART, SPIRIT & DRUMS

MY HEART FEELS AT ONE WITH MOTHER EARTH
FLOWING WITH LOVE IN MY HEART
MY SPIRIT FEELS AT ONE WITH THE SUN & MOON
FLOWING WITH LIGHT IN MY SPIRIT
MY DRUMS FEELS AT ONE WITH THE RHYTHM
FLOWING WITH BEATS IN MY DRUMS.

Peace & Love Alasdair

This is a video taken at The Out of the Ordinary Festival of me in a drum circle at the Peace Stone Circle, feel the vibes of Mother Earth, Fire, Sun & Moon.
