Equipment

Old Man Ben and the GA travel with their own complete sound system that can be easily adapted to most spaces. Technical needs include at least one power outlet near the performance space and room for the 4 musicians to get their groove. We have yet to find a space that doesn't work!

Genre?

Rocky mountain country jam fusion? Bluegrass jazz? Backwoods Americana for the inebriated? Banjo infused folk music for metal heads? What is genre really besides an attempted alphabetizing of musical tones...

Ben and the band's original songs tell the stories of the parts of Montana that never make the news. Falling down mineshafts, dodging government surveillance and grizzly bears, tumbling across the windswept Missouri river breaks or busting out of Warm Springs State Mental Hospital; there is something in here for every citizen of Montana. Throw in some wildly re-imagined covers of the likes of Corb, Garth, Daft Punk and more and you have a live show that will make you twist your ear-horns and politely ask for more.
