Hi, I’m Benton Merkel. I’m a multi-instrumentalist and writer who has composed and performed original music with multiple bands for roughly a decade. I love playing guitar, bass, drums, and singing, and I have production and recording experience in home and professional studio settings. I'm also a multi-media visual artist, and have created countless original pieces using a plethora of materials. Beyond the stage, I’ve developed experience in sales and kitchen roles, which has sharpened my work ethic, adaptability, and teamwork. I also have a bachelor's degree in philosophy with a minor in music recording from Northeastern University, which has allowed me to become proficient with multiple DAWs such as Logic, Reaper, and ProTools. I’m eager to connect with collaborators and opportunities that challenge me as a musician, producer, and artist, while continuing to grow across creative disciplines.…Hi, I’m Benton Merkel.
