Hosting an Open Mic Every Wednesday at Aviator Tap House!!!

"Stand Against HB2 Concert" with OG Merge May 15th!

I'm going to be playing bass with OG Merge this Sunday for the "Stand Against HB2 Concert" at Haw River Ballroom. We start playing around 1:55pm if you are attending. The tickets are Sold Out but they will be cutting wrist bands of people who are leaving and selling tickets when they become available.

Here's a little description of the event. Come out and show your support if you can.

On May 15th at the Haw River Ballroom in, we're having a concert. North Carolina musicians will raise their voices against HB2 and in support of EqualityNC. 100% of ticket sales will go to this important organization to help their fight against this harmful and hateful law. We need you. To attend. To speak. To cheer. To protest. And to spread the word. The time is now, while this issue is front and center!

Finally ready!

Hello blogosphere,

After finally snagging a good 9-5 Mon-Fri job here in Raleigh, NC I now have the time (and money) to pick back up my passion... Music.

I've been writing songs for my first EP I'm planning on recording with my good friend Billy Smith (Still Carolina) hopefully before the year is out.

I've also started the process of booking shows here in Raleigh so if you are a venue looking for some live music, please feel free to email me at herring.benjamin@gmail.com.

Welcome!

Hey guys,

My name is Benjamin Herring and welcome to my new and improved site.

Here you can keep up with upcoming shows, check out all my latest videos and basically keep up to date with all things music I've got going.

I'm currently booking shows now that I've settled in here in Raleigh, so make sure to swing by often for updates on new events. I'll be playing a lot of open mic's in order to feel out the area and will be putting them up on my calendar, so feel free to swing by and jam with me!

Thanks for dropping by,

-Ben
