Watch on YouTube.

Join us on Facebook tomorrow at 10:45am PST / 7:45pm CET as we livestream our recent Baloise Session live from Switzerland. Thirty minutes prior, chat live with Ben in a Facebook Q&A.

Some of our most frequently asked questions are: what kinds of guitars does Ben play, what tuning does he use and how does he get that signature sound? Thanks to Premier Guitar, their Rig Rundown with Ben and guitarist Jason Mozersky answers these questions in a new hour-long podcast!

We're excited to share this exclusive podcast with Ben and longtime pal and musical collaborator Tom Freund. Tom's new album "East of Lincoln" comes out Sep 7.

To listen to the singles "East of Lincoln" and "Freezer Burn" visit tomfreund.com. Pre-order the album on iTunes.
