Benjamin Jayne

Zig At The Gig with Benjamin Jayne   Theater is the second album recorded by the project that goes by the name “Benjamin Jayne,” a project that revolves around brother and sister, Benjamin and Amanda Wright. This album was primarily a solo effort, written and recorded by Benjamin with Drew Skinner handling mixing and production and Amanda contributing singing, piano, and bells on multiple songs as well as a new composition of her own. Theater is being released by WhatAboutMusic May 7. The new album is wonderfully crafted; it’s more rock-driven than their debut release, HI-LO, but still maintains a good deal of folk/singer-songwriter stylings while adding electronic elements and moving towards psychedelic-folk. Its tone is slightly darker than its predecessor’s – not surprisingly since it was written primarily during the tragic and tumultuous year, 2020. Writing and recording these songs served as a catharsis to a lot of the chaos, merging anger, frustration, disbelief, depression, and anxiety with reminders of youth and innocence, joy, and hopefulness. Benjamin also has a background in performance and songwriting, with guitar as his principal instrument. He studied film scoring and jazz performance at Berklee College of Music and played in multiple bands over the last two decades. He also worked as a multi-instrumentalist for hire, playing professionally in Los Angeles for a few years before changing fields from music to Psychiatry.
