About Me



Benjamin Keith has quickly become know as one of Vancouver’s most fearless and engaging performers. Born and raised in Vancouver BC. He found his musical calling in his late teens, moving from a background in theater.“I grew tired of expressing others feelings. It was time for me to have own voice, and song writing was where I found it!”With a blend of catchy pop hooks, and endearing ballads Benjamin’s sound has been compared to the likes of Matthew Good, Jason Mraz, and Rob Thomas. Either with his backing band “The Hot Models” or as a solo acoustic act, he is not one to sit back and strum sad songs. His big voice and energy make him a stand out on any stage.Having played in some of Vancouver’s best rooms (Media Club, Red Room, Richards on Richards etc.) he is now ready to take and expand his horizons. With his newest Album “If A Moment Could Speak” Benjamin is looking to continue to build his fan base by tour both Eastern and western Canada.
