Benny Mao is an acoustic guitar-wielding singer-songwriter. He grew up in New Orleans, but now lives in LA. A little while ago, he wrote some songs and recorded an album called A Place Unseen.

Currently, Benny is looking for inspiration and thinking of how to get back to Asia. He hopes that life will continue to bring him comedy, passion, and adventure so that he can write songs about it.
