Arlon Bennett; Husband, Daddy, Eagle Scout, baseball connoisseur, and all-around Renaissance guy with Tuscan roots, is an Americana songsmith with a gift of storytelling from the heart that reveals the gold nuggets in the river of everyday life.<\/h3>

Hailing originally from Long Island, NY, Arlon\u2019s emergence in the Americana music scene has grown steadily by opening for such acts as Glenn Tilbrook (Squeeze), Jill Sobule, and Tom Paxton. Arlon also was twice selected by Noel Paul Stookey (Peter, Paul & Mary) to perform in his Music-to-Life showcase at the Kerrville Folk Festival featuring America’s best songs of social consciousness. “Be the Change,” from his third album Summer’s Voice<\/i>, was the #9 most-played song nationwide on American roots radio in 2007.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

He is most proud when he hears how teachers share it with their students. Arlon\u2019s new release, The Healing Project\u2019 Vol. 1<\/i>, is a five song electronic release, and his first featuring songs under \u2018The Healing Project\u2019 moniker. In 2010, Arlon was diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s disease, and he declared \u2018The Healing Project\u2019, setting out to prove that music could indeed help heal and inspire himself and others so challenged. The track \u2018Don\u2019t Turn Back Now\u2019 is an upbeat remix and re-release from Arlon\u2019s \u201cThe Watch Man\u201d (2001), while new tracks like \u201cLucky Scars\u201d and \u201cAnalog Man\u201d might remind us of healing on a grander scale.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

All of this follows \u201cWorld of Possibility\u201d (2013), the title track of Arlon\u2019s previous release that made in-roads around the world reminding us all that \u201cyou can do anything!\u201d Arlon Bennett is an artist who draws you in with that aw-shucks charisma, before engaging you with songs that provoke, heal, and just plain cut right to your soul\u2026 and they do! He lives in Rockland County, NY with his wife Catherine, and his two children Phelan and Arlana.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
