In this jazzy episode of Firelight Chats, Benjamin Holt wailed his strings to the Spacelab to jam hard like a newly freed man with Kane & Mocha by the fireside. They dive head first into adjectives, comedy, frigid winters, Halifax explosions, Jimi Hendrix, kinds of blues, gospel music, country poppin', freelance hustlin', Deep Ellum, road trip tourin', education, the beauty of diversity, wild times, love & heartbreak, keeping it cool, showing up, being a professional, the Taiwan music scene, giving more than you take, and baring your heart & soul for the world to taste.
Weaved into the episode are juicy musical vignettes from Benjamin's diverse repertoire with a full length track rounding out the experience. Like a true jazz improviser and educator, Ben nails the FireLightNing Round of rapid questions and shares some words of wisdom and encouragement with the younger generation of musicians.
Benjamin Holt is originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada; studied, lived, and hustled in Dallas, Texas; and is currently living and working in Taiwan. He is a Gold Card holder, professional musician, proud resident of Da Ping Lin, his new Big D in Xindian, and can be found performing alongside some of Taiwan's brightest stars all around the island(s) and beyond.
