Description
Ben Trexel is a composer, producer, and guitarist based in Birmingham, Alabama. Over the past five years, Trexel has released two successful instrumental solo albums, played over 450 shows, and produced albums for other emerging artists including Ken Johnson, Carlos Platon, Ned Mudd, Big Talk, and the Stewart Mayfield Project. Trexel is now working on his third instrumental album, following up Wearing A Groove (1997), and Under The Radar (2000), rehearsing for showcases as bassist for the Ken Johnson band, and actively co-writing with several other artists. Songs from Wearing a Groove and Under the Radar have appeared in three New Line Cinema films worldwide as well as been featured on television shows such as Access Hollywood, E's Wild On series, Extra: Entertainment, The National Enquirer, Fox Sports South (Hockey), Playboy Channel, ABC Promos (All My Children, Monday Night Football, Primetime Live, One Life to Live, The View, The Practice, Good Morning America, LPGA Tour Championship, World News Tonight).
His current album, Under The Radar, released in May 2000 is a combination of potent, driving guitar rock interspersed with evocative new age acoustic stylings, and further cements his place alongside such instrumental luminaries as Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, Adrian Legg, and Jeff Beck.
"My goal on the new album is to combine sonic textures and memorable melodies to create an emotional impact on the listener.
I want to reach an audience that might not normally choose to listen to instrumental music. I also wanted to create songs that aren't based solely around technique as with many instrumental records."
