A Moving Story Of Resilience, Determination, And Passion - Benjamin "Bencasso" Barnes Marks Amazing ComebackEnveloping audiences with inspiring, mellow, and light-hearted music - Benjamin Barnes’ “Straight from a Loser’s Mouth” is the authentic story of tortured soul

An ever-loving and ever-honest alternative artist - Benjamin “Bencasso” Barnes makes an amazing comeback, having endured catastrophic brain and skull injuries, disorders, and extensive trauma.

Despite facing innumerable obstacles- a shattered skull, broken vertebrae, collar bone, scapula, and a traumatic brain injury that left him unable to play music for a few years, Benjamin has managed to persevere and make a remarkable comeback. His new remix spins that track “Straight from a Loser’s Mouth” in a way which is unlike any other musical compositions in the Alternative stream.

“Straight from a Loser’s Mouth” features an acoustic recording with analogue tapes that Dan Reilley remixed. Reilley also remixed the vocals with Lizzie Skow’s backup singing more prominent than the bluegrass acoustic rock recording on unlucky.

The new remix highlights recovery from cocaine addiction and was first recorded by the artist’s band Deadweight, a hard rock power trio of electric violin, electric cello, and drums. Benjamin was the lead singer and violinist, and they recorded it on their second studio album ‘Halfwit Anthems,’ which they self-released.

An electic talent, Benjamin achieved early success playing on street corners and selling his mom’s art. He later achieved rock stardom with various bands, including Rilke String Quartet, Deadweight, Mr. Bungle, Les Claypool, Fishbone, and Swindlefish.

In addition to his music, Benjamin is also pitching a reality show about him and his brother navigating entrepreneurship and creating legitimate arts organizations and a for-profit production and broadcasting studio. His story is truly one of resilience, determination, and creativity, and his music is a testament to his passion and talent.
