about

Seattle guitarist, singer, and songwriter Paul Benoit has just released his 10th studio album, KING OF DELUSION. It blends rock, blues, pop, and Americana themes with lush horn melodies, explosive guitar work, and skillful song-craft -- all inspired by decades in music, performing and traveling around the globe. The album was mixed by local guitarist/producer Johnny Sangster and features a talented band of some of Paul's greatest friends. At times experimental, moody, and uplifting, the music and lyrics inspire emotion and introspection, tapping into the human experience in these times of uncertainty. Benoit invites you into his global travels, from Seattle to Istanbul, Burma to California, Feelings to Delusions.
