ABOUT ME

BEN MORGAN BAND

Hi! We are Ben, Mark and Lettice - the current line up of Ben Morgan Band. We are focusing on our USA tour summer 2013 and looking for places to stay and places to play in May and June.

Ben - vocals and guitar
A charismatic and confident frontman, Ben has rocked the UK, Europe and the USA on previous tours. He founded his own record label, but

Mark - (that's me writing this!) I play keys / rhythm guitar and sing. I've just returned from a 6 month deployment to Afghanistan as a Royal Marine Commando and am now enjoying my leave by playing music with my old friends, and I hope to make many more in my first visit to America!

Lettice - an exceptionally talented violinist, Lettice brings an amazing energy and intensity to the band. Her recent gigs include London, Belgium, Luxembourg and the Formula 1 car racing in Bahrain. She's crazy and fun, and instantly likeable.

_____________________________________________________

Are you a musician? Would you like to meet up and jam, or join the band for a gig? We're especially keen to meet dummers, bassists (as we're not bringing our own rhythm section with us) and soloists - brass, guitar, keys, anything!

Can you help host, or set up a gig in your local bar or club? We are flexible musically and play in a wide range of venues. This trip is about meeting people, playing and sharing music, and having fun on the road.

Hope to see you on the road!

PHILOSOPHY

This section is definitely for Lettice to fill in.
