NEW ORLEANS
Born and raised in New Orleans’ richest musical communities, Ben showcases original songs that explore the city through his lived experience. His unique New Orleans Afro-Caribbean Folk music intimately combines the closely related musical histories of reggae, Black masking Indian chants, and West African beats. This profound sound inspires a new musical truth.
New Orleans music culture greatly influenced Jamaican music through New Orleans' radio stations that reached Jamaican shores in the 40s, 50s, and 60s... Now we integrate as one. New Orleans Afro-Caribbean Reggae.
"His latest album, Soul Avenger, is a twelve-song collection that highlights the hallmarks of his long career—powerful songs, righteous conviction, and great production values." - OffBeat Magazine
