About

Motel Ben

Label: Bandcamp
since 2021
Motel Ben est un mélange éclectique et rêveur de mélodies soul et parfois mélancoliques, de blues, de poésie, de reggae, de rythmes funky et de nuances classiques. Motel Ben est un mélange d'artistes uniques et d'un art découplé des tendances musicales, qui saura assurément divertir une foule !

Motel Ben is an eclectic, dreamy mix of soulful and at times melancholic melodies, blues, spoken word, reggae, funky beats and classic undertones. Motel Ben is a blend of unique artists and artistry uncoupled from musical trends, sure to entertain a crowd!

Started in 2014, Ben's Motel joined forces with JoAnn Brooks and Jack van der Meer with Allan Kinney doubling as the third member of "The TripLettes" in playing to a full house at Castro's Lounge in Toronto's Beaches neighbourhood on Monday, May 16, 2016. Appearing more and more on stages in Ottawa since then, we've branched in two - The Everything Bagel and Motel Ben! To everything there is a season!
