Ben Flournoy

Originally from Quincy, FL, Ben Flournoy's passion for music ignited at the age of 10 when he first witnessed Marty McFly rock out to "Johnny B. Goode" in “Back to the Future”. That iconic scene fueled a lifelong love for music, and from the moment he picked up a guitar, he knew his life would never be the same.

By the age of 15, Ben made a pivotal decision to dedicate himself fully to his craft. The guitar evolved from a mere instrument into his voice, his passion, and his purpose. Drawing inspiration from legendary artists such as Stevie Ray Vaughan, B.B. King, Albert King, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, and John Mayer, Ben has cultivated a distinctive sound that seamlessly blends pop, rock, and blues.

Ben's electrifying stage presence transcends mere performance; it offers an immersive experience for his audience. His natural ability to connect on a personal level, combined with his raw talent, caught the attention of Tallahassee's Top 40 radio station, WHTF 104.9, which recognized him as the 2024 Hot Find Artist.

His debut single has received outstanding reviews from listeners on terrestrial radio, marking the beginning of what promises to be a remarkable musical journey.
