About

With 36 studio albums and eight live albums, George Benson has emerged a household name best known for the 1976 three-time GRAMMY-winning album, Breezin’, with the smash “This Masquerade,” which topped the jazz, pop and R&B charts. The album remains one of the best-selling jazz albums of all time. His 1980 soul-pop gem, “Give Me The Night,” produced by Quincy Jones and written by Rod Temperton (Michael Jackson), ascended to the top of the soul charts. In 2009, Benson was awarded the NEA Jazz Masters Fellowship— the highest honor that our nation bestows on jazz artists.

Benson is a consummate performer and an adventurous instrumentalist who remains an annual must-see artist. He regularly packs and sells out venues such as The Hollywood Bowl, Royal Albert Hall, Hampton Court Palace and Sydney Opera House. Benson is also a marquee artist at many U.S. Jazz and international festivals.

Recently, he collaborated with subversive art-pop band, Gorillaz, featuring Blur’s Damon Albarn, to co-write and perform on the track “Humility,” which has amassed over 100 million YouTube views and counting. In 2021, DJ Steve Aoki remixed Benson’s hit “Give Me The Night,” with a rugged house beat introducing the irresistible R&B-pop gem to a whole new audience.
