Limerick SongWriters @ Foley's Bar, Limerick
Thursday 9th JUNE 2011 9.00pm
Special Guest this week is BenOit.
A one man champion of acoustic music and vocal experimentation. BenOit plays happy, honest music with a continental feel. Originally from Belgium but resident in Ireland for about 9 years he fuses cafe jazz with urban beat boxing and singing to create a genuinely refreshing sound. Honest lyrics and solid beats are his trademark, winning him fans up and down the country, and resulting in several tv appearances on TG4. Songs such as "Freedom" and "Unique Freak" showcase his strong vocal talent, and relentless striving for individuality in a world of generic singer songwriters. To date BenOit has recorded 2 five track E.P.'s entitled "Smoke gets in you eye" and "Blueprints". He has also featured on the Javas album which he helped produce. Always looking to the future BenOit is constantly exploring and developing new ideas and collaborations.
