The Story

OriginUnited StatesGenrejazz, smooth jazz, pop musicLabelWarner Bros. Records, Columbia Records, Concord Records

Picture yourself swaying to the smooth grooves of a late-night jazz club, where the air is thick with the rich aroma of coffee and the sound of a guitar whispers sweet nothings. That’s the magic of George Benson, an American maestro who effortlessly blends jazz, smooth jazz, pop, rhythm and blues, and funk into a captivating soundscape. With his guitar in one hand and a microphone in the other, he has serenaded listeners with unforgettable tracks like "This Masquerade," "On Broadway," and "Give Me the Night." His ability to turn a melody into a conversation is unmatched, as evidenced in the timeless "Turn Your Love Around" and the breezy vibes of "Breezin'." Benson's music is a journey through emotions, a nostalgic embrace that lingers long after the last note fades.
