Ben's been involved with music since preschool with classical training in Guitar and Piano. Since then he learned Organ, various Brass and Percussion and sought to play them incorrectly and loudly. He is often influenced by Folk Rock and Post-Hardcore, but usually incorporates multiple genres into songs or exclusively one genre per song. While he performed extensively in college, lately he has been lazy.

9pm- D.B. Rielly
Genre: American Roots Music
For fans of: The Texas Tornados, Lyle Lovett
D.B. Rielly was only six months old when, upon hearing Michael Bolton sing, he immediately soiled his diaper and vowed to bring good music back to a starving generation. Since then, he has tirelessly pursued his quest, all the while narrowly avoiding work, debt collectors, and liver failure.
"An uplifting slice of accordion-fueled, infectious, grooving roots music."
— Lonesome Highway (Ireland)
"Rielly is definitely someone to watch out for."
— Country Music People magazine (England)
