Ben Travers - Guitar

Ben Travers was introduced to music at a very early age by his father – a classical guitarist. As he grew up, Ben’s early influences could not have been more diverse – a steamy cauldron of work by musicians such as Preston Reed, Andy Timmons and Steve Lukather to name a few and his early performing work included stints in punk, rock and mainstream jazz.

In 2000, Ben attended the Academy of Contemporary Music, studying music composition and guitar. He graduated with exemplary grades. It's intriguing to note however, that in spite of performing with some of the most exciting bands in these contemporary genres, Ben felt he needed even greater challenges and this quest led him to the music of Django.

Ben and Stuart started performing together in 2006 and created a formidable duo that travelled extensively in the UK, Europe and USA.
