Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, Mark Chestnut, Bobby Kimball of ToTo, Michael McDonald, Stevie Wonder, Jim Morrison, James Taylor, Huey Lewis and Marsha Ball and for sure Lynyrd Skynyrd and my first concert was Kenny Rogers back in the day.
Sounds Like
Believe it or not, a cd I made was heard by my brother-in-law's boss who thought I was Jim Morrison. I'm just happy sounding like ME!
Born in SW Louisiana, I am the sole male with three sisters.
I was basketball player in my day and was looking forward to playing college ball. An accident on the court my junior year in high school ended that. I fractured a disc in my lower back that prevented any further dream of competitive basketball. I happened to look at my report card from high school and saw grades like c,c,c,c,A, Chorus and A, P.E. So I figured I should coach or sing. I'd been coaching little kids since I was in junior high so I earned a degree in education from McNeese State but the politics in education today didn't fit my vision, so I changed to music and been there ever since.
I've been in bands who've opened for some major acts from Hootie and the Blowfish to Marshall Tucker band and Eddie Money to name a few. More recently opened for Rodney Atkins and Highway 101 and Sammy Kershaw.
I have also shared the stage with Mark Chestnut and Bobby Kimball of ToTO
a close personal friend of the family.
I love making my fans happy with my music and the only things I care about more are my daughter, family and friends / fans they're the same.

I have a new tune on my other myspace called 'Jazzy Blue' ~
This is the first time I've gotten to record within my brand spanking new ~ totally optimized Ashram / Asylum ~ & I must say with this updated digital recording facility & some new axes to grind ~ it is truly a luxury at it's finest ~ at least it is for me me me !!!!! So here it is ~ just a rhythm track I'd made over the last couple of days ~ in order to acclimate myself with all the new toys I now have at my disposal . . . I'll be writing lots of new lyrics as well as new music ~ for both of my upcoming projects ~ the follow-up to my debut CD now available on Moiko Records ~ it's a new concept album I've been (Ben) working on for over a year & a half ~ as well as the awesome new version of The Altruistic Messiah's latest touring band ~ a line up consisting of life long friends & a few of the most amazingly talented new individuals I have just recently had the honor to become associated with ! I am always wishing each & every one of you the very best ~ & this continues to be the primary focus of any & all communication between us as individuals ~ it is my belief that this concern is fundamental in the advancement of humanity ~ & that this is the reason we are alive ~ that this is what we are living for ~ as human nature must transcend into something greater than it ever has been (Ben) ~ as every single one of us collectively evolve into everything we are destined to realize ~ & we must leave no man or woman behind ~ STOP WAR ~ I know I go way off the beat & path often ~ but I love everyone !!!!!! Peace, Ben P.S. PLease don't forget to attend my CD Release Party at the Rainbow Bar & Grill on the Sunset Strip ~ It starts at 3:00 P.M. November 1st & of course YOU ARE INVITED !
