Hello Ben! You are my hero, I’ve listened to your music for my entire life and I’ve always believed you are one of the best musical minds of the living world. I have two questions for you:

1.) You have done a lot of collaborations with different talents within or outside of the music industry. Lonely Avenue is definitely my favorite album of all time. What was your favorite collaboration and why? Least favorite?

2.) I love playing your music on piano and I have all of your sheet music books. Do you have any tips for an aspiring solo piano player? Maybe how to branch out into actually playing for people or ways to develop your own personal style?

I can’t wait to see you in Charlotte this November, and your shows in NYC were a blast! Thank you so much!

So stoked for the surprise AMA!

I've seen you guys so many times, in varying points of your career. I've seen you guys in small venues where you were openers or headlines at bigger ones.

What is your favorite type of crowd to play to? I vividly remember chatting with you all after one of your shows in CT a while back, I couldn't believe you were opening for some random band I had never heard of and I was front and center loving every second of it! Are the intimate environments nicer or do you like bigger crowds with more response?

Oh my goodness, I know you. I was in the room next to you on the first floor of Champagnat last year! Marist Red Foxes all the way!
