Donny Benet - Mr. Experience

[Lackey]

Also - Check out his previous band, Triosk - totally different (PostRock ? Loop based electro ambient jazz? who knows...). Right up my alley.

The record was SOLD OUT! How can I feed my obsession?

He's posting a taped, live concert on Nov.21. I guess you get tix at his site and can see it when it goes live.

Count me in!

As I came across Mr. Benet via his playing with Kirin J Callinan, I'm obligated to share this epic music video, with, of course, some savvy upright playing by Mr. Benet. Enjoy.

I've seen him and his band on a live show in Warsaw, July 2019. So cute!

I enjoyed yesterday’s live performance. There was a moment the fretless came out and it got a little ropey for some reason, but otherwise good stuff.

This guy is just brilliant, putting the fun back in music. He is as cool as ice. Great songwriter, singer and bassist! Go Donny!

Just discovered him. I love his philosophy of the fretless bass: "It's a deep pool, but once you learn to swim, you swim with the dolphins."

I also just found out about this amazing talent. The videos are a riot, the playing is pure class, I’m totally digging all of it.

And I may be wrong, but he’s playing a Steinberger-Esque bass in a video. Said it was made by a Finnish guy... was that you, @MPU?

Saw Donny play in Perth a year or so ago. Awesome fun show, fantastic, funny character but those basslines
Practicing "Love Online" atm

I’ve been following him for a few months now. Thanks YouTube!

Seeing him live in March here in LA. Should be fun.

That is such a fantastic song. Slick, groovy and quite funny. One of my favourites of his.

 

[Swamp_Ronin]

Just bought a ticket to see him in a few weeks. Love this guys music and a legit player

 

[vivaknoxvegas]

His new EP Le Piano is fantastic. All instrumental, bass playing is on point.

I saw him last month, great show, super pumped crowd.

He didn't play bass, but tons of synth solos, very cool.

 

[ModuMan]

I just found this party. So cool. Having a blast going through all his videos and I picked up a couple of his albums via Bandcamp, happy to support this artist!

He's a seriously good player but his delivery, like his persona, is so easy.

Just saw Donny and his band live in Brighton, absolutely fantastic show.

He was playing his F Bass and sounded phenomenal. Great fun!
