Born in Boston, Massachusetts and raised in Orlando Florida and Boston. Rob Benton is hitting and leaving his mark on the Northeast music scene with fervor. Playing his edgy mix of acoustic rock and pop to packed venues almost nightly, few artists can match Rob’s energy and unique style.

“There are so many things happening in my little bubble,” says Benton of the many projects currently on his plate. Besides playing his solo acoustic shows in intimate venues, Rob has been touring with the Rob Benton Band for a more energetic and explosive sound. Mentored and managed by Rich Cronin (multi-platinum selling artist/producer, LFO, Sureshot, Mission: Manband, Loose Cannons),The Rob Benton Band recently won the RJL Memorial Battle of the Bands. A competition where 8 of the best bands in the northeast Duke it out on stage, playing only original music. Rob is signed to Orange Freeze Records and has just completed his debut album set for a late October release.

Catch Rob at one of his many listed appearances, and stay tuned for East Coast tour dates, to be posted in the coming weeks.

Rob, it has been awhile. I've been busy with school. I checke dout the new stuff, and I have to add, I'm highly impressed with the new stuff. I added Summer Song to my profile. Also, I added a line of verse to my heading too with credit to you of course. I posted a bulletin for everyone to see, hopefully you get some traffic.

Good luck and I hope to see you and the band soon!
