Benkio is a singer-songwriter from the UK.
His music is "way too good", according to BBC DJ Greg James.
UK comedian John Robins says it "has a bit of Mac DeMarco about it".
Indeed, with 10+ years of writing and performing behind him, Benkio takes inspiration from all things indie, folk, and rock.
His signature style – introspective yet bold – has caught the ear of BBC DJs, international radio stations, indie blogs, festival bookers, and local press.
And now, Benkio is proud to release his debut album, This Is The Year, which follows his year living abroad, and all the good and bad that came with it.
