About Me

The Austin Benjamin Trio is a young, energetic and eclectic group bringing the value of both structured and improvised music to a wider audience. The sounds are a synthesis of electronica,folk,rock and jazz presenting them in an acoustic context and can be heard on the debut album 'Amalgama' due for release in September 2008.
