Summary

I’m Ben Flournoy from Quincy, FL. When I was 10 years old, I saw Marty McFly play Johnny B. Goode in Back To The Future, and the world was never the same to me. I got my hands on a guitar and never let go. At 15 years old I decided to dedicate my life to playing the guitar, writing music, touring and living the life of an artist. I owe a lot to my heroes Stevie Ray Vaughan, B.B. King, Albert King, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton and John Mayer, but I’m here to forge my own path and creating my own sound.
