History

The Early Days

In 1994 singer/guitar player Fiebo Scholtens dropped out of law school. He decided to start a band together with Barbara Lampe and Michel Weber. Thus Benjamin B. was founded.

In the following year the band took part in several band competitions. The group won the Pop=Prima award and also managed to reach the final round of De Grote Prijs, an important Dutch competition for new musical talent. In addition to that, the band’s first demo became ‘demo of the year’ in Music Maker and received a very positive review in FRET magazine.

Excelsior Recordings

In 1996 these successes translated into a record deal with Excelsior Recordings. The much praised mini-cd Benjamin B. CD, with four original compositions and one Gershwin cover, was released in the fall of ’96.
