BEN-J, pseudonym of Benjamin Yoan Joël Gayton (born in Loire, France) is an author, composer, performer.

 

Artist with a chameleon soul, he grew up drowned in a musical atmosphere. At the age of 7, he was already dancing at country festivals listening to his favorite artists in front of thousands of spectators. It is through these unforgettable experiences that he begins to dream of also being on stage.

 

In 2012, BEN-J returns to reality after an interdimensional journey. This experience, which marked him forever, is told in his first project which will see the light of day in 2023 under the title of "INSIDE ME".

 

During 10 years (2012-2022) of personal reconstruction BEN-J experiments with singing, dancing, theater and cabaret.

 

In 2019, he joined the urban choir of Paris "Sankofa Unit" which allows him to share the stage with incredible artists on the sets of "The Voice" and "Taratata".

 

In 2022, he was chosen as frontman and singer of the group Lenny-K (tribute band of Lenny Kravitz) and went on tour with more than 30 dates between 2022 and 2023 in Switzerland and France.
