Donny Benét Live in Leeds

Donny Benét brings his signature blend of 80s-inspired synth-pop and suave stage presence to Leeds for an intimate evening of live music. Known for his charismatic performances and witty, risqué lyrics, the Australian artist—born Benjamin Waples—has built a cult following with albums like *Mr Experience*, which reached #26 on the ARIA Charts in 2020.

Attendees can expect a setlist drawing from his five studio albums, including fan favorites like "Konichiwa" and "Second Dinner." Benét's music features synthesizers, electronic drum machines, saxophone, and electric bass, all played by the artist himself, creating a nostalgic yet fresh sound that has drawn comparisons to Bryan Ferry and Hiroshi Yoshimura.

This Leeds date is part of a tour that showcases Benét's unique persona—a persona he developed after watching an Italian accordionist perform in nursing homes. With his father being an Italian disco accordionist, Benét's musical roots run deep, promising a show that's equal parts heartfelt and entertaining.
