The phrase “old soul” certainly applies to Ben Levin.

“It is remarkable that he has managed to learn much of the essence of the blues piano traditions at such a young age.”  Blues Blast Magazine, review of “Ben’s Blues” by Mark Thompson.

Ben Levin is a 19 year old blues pianist/vocalist from Cincinnati, OH.  Ben started playing professionally at age 11 with his father’s band, the Heaters, and now plays 100+ gigs a year while attending the University of Cincinnati.  Ben has played prestigious shows/events in the U.S. and around the world such as the Cincy Blues Fest, the LaRoquebrou (France) International Boogie and Blues Festival, and UK Boogie Fest, and the Beauforthuis festival in the Netherlands.  In 2018, the Ben Levin Duo reached the semi-finals in the International Blues Challenge in Memphis.  He was also nominated for two awards from Blues Blast magazine: Debut CD of the year for “Ben’s Blues” and Sean Costello Rising Star award.
