From Failed Recipes to Catchy Poolside Grooves: The Musical Journey of Greg and Ben
In the world of music, there are some stories that are just too good not to share. This is one of them.
It all began when a talented chef from Ireland found himself in a bit of a pickle after his whiskey-soaked potato recipes failed to impress in France. He was promptly run out of the country by the fashion police and ended up in Strasbourg, where he met a French skater boy with dreams of becoming a fashion mogul and a passion for cider.
But as fate would have it, it wasn’t their love of food or fashion that brought them together. No, it was their shared love of electro-funk. From that fateful meeting in 2007, a musical journey was born, one that would take them through rock, funk, electro, and pop.
Fast forward to today, and the duo – known as Greg and Ben – have landed in a place of catchy poolside grooves. Greg is working his retro keyboards and infectious groovy beats on one side of France, while Ben lays down smooth vocals and funky guitar on the other. Together, they produce a layered sound that’s hard to get out of your head once you’ve heard it.
Their latest offering, “2 Cool for the Pool,” is the perfect embodiment of their unique sound. With its blend of midi and instrumental tracks, it’s the kind of song that makes you want to slip into your bathrobe, stick a paper umbrella in your cocktail, and get down to the groove.
If you haven’t yet discovered the magic of Greg and Ben’s music, now’s the time. Trust us, you won’t regret it.
