Rob Benton

About Me

Rob Benton is the hottest new Rock/Acoustic Rock performer out of Boston. Playing to sold out venues across the Northeast, Rob's style is extremely unique, hinted with a collection of the sounds of those who have influenced him over the years.
In 2008, Rob Benton teamed up with multi-platinum selling pop artist and Boston neighbor, Rich Cronin to record the tracks which would become Rob's solo debut.
Orange Freeze Records is proud to announce the release of Rob's debut album, "DAWN MEETS DAY" currently available on iTunes, amazon.com, eMusic, Rhapsody and Audio Lunchbox. Hard copies of the CD are available at all Rob Benton performances, and soon, in stores near you.
To truly experience the magic of Rob's music, his live show should not be missed. Shows are filled with amazing energy and a stage presence that puts this singer/songwriter lightyears ahead of the rest. Check back for scheduled tour dates often!
