Benni Chawes’ (Ben Chawes) acclaimed debut from 2006 “Up Close” propelled him through the sound barrier and into well-earned popularity, sending the singer, pianist and entertainer out on a large-scale tour of Europe, Asia, the Middle East, USA and Canada.

With his timeless and sparkling personal bid on vocal jazz/pop/soul in the international league he is one of the few musicians to have sung their way to Ray Charles’ heart. And he is the only musician ever to sign an exclusive sponsorship deal with the crème de la crème of international audio design, Bang & Olufsen.

But Chawes is much more than merely a singer. He combines an obvious crooner talent with his own special ingredient: mouth instruments. His ability to make every detail of a whole rhythm section come alive with his mouth is uncanny.

The 4-time award-winning artist is coming back with a new and even more exiting release in March 2016.
