Benji Hughes and Jon Lindsay

Benji Hughes and Jon Lindsay—who go back decades to their early days in Charlotte, NC—are touring this year as a duo combining two singular talents into one unforgettable musical experience. With a shared history of collaboration, they bring together Hughes’ eclectic songwriting genius and Lindsay’s boundless versatility for a live show that is equal parts heart, and melodic, mordant brilliance. "An Evening Extreme with Benji Hughes and Jon Lindsay" offers fans an immersive experience—a journey through the hits and rarities of Hughes’ extensive catalog in a psychedelic cabaret setting, where Lindsay’s sparkling performances serve as both show opener and collaborator in Hughes’ set- an affair laced with comedic catharsis, and musical magic. Hughes is a genre-defying artist celebrated for his ambitious songwriting, charm, and emotional resonance. His 2008 debut double album, A Love Extreme, is widely regarded as a cult classic, earning praise from Rolling Stone and The New York Times. Lindsay's fourth LP, "Big Stage", made at Eric Valentine's Barefoot Studios in Hollywood, arrives May 16th via Daffin Records.
