Back to Band JOHN BENSON - Drums

John the drummer likes to hit his drums. He likes the ocean. He likes tequila. He likes the way monkeys clean each other without feeling awkward about it. He likes chocolate. He likes the rumble of dual exhaust from a 1964 Chevy Malibu. He likes his mom. He likes Vic Firth wood-tip 5a hickory drum sticks. He likes sleeping. He likes the moon, la luna, they say in Mexico. He likes the fact that you took the time to read this and get to know him a little better.

John plays a Ludwig Club Date drum kit with pearl finishes from the 60's. He also sometimes plays guitar, and on the rare appearance you get the treat of hearing him "sing." John is related to Johnny Naugahyde from the Crib Kickers.
