  • Description

    Ben Levin, 21, brings vintage style with youthful fire to his piano, singing and songwriting - The songs written by Ben and his father, guitarist Aron Levin, and the well-chosen covers reflect the music and sound of Cincinnati's historic King Records along with what's in their hearts today.

    Ben's piano influences are New Orleans greats Professor Longhair, Fats Domino, and Smiley Lewis. From Chicago Blues, he mixes in Otis Spann, Pinetop Perkins and Henry Gray, along with the relentless drive of Cincinnati's Big Joe Duskin.



    Ben's father, Aron Levin, contributes deep songwriting and guitar playing that can be only from a family connection. His tone, phrasing, and ability to ride styles with clever originality make for seamless musical and genetic collaboration. The original songs are organic and homegrown. The stories come from Ben's and Aron's lives. Their Blues, perspective and philosophy is brilliantly paced with their danceable, upbeat songs.
