Ben Kadlecek

Ben Kadlecek is a 24 year old Southern Rock/ Alternative Country artist from the Texas Hill Country town of Dripping Springs, Ben moved to College Station after high school to attend Texas A&M University.  It was during his time as an Aggie that his passion for his music really ignited.  He began regularly attending open mic nights in the area and started writing his own songs.  He released a single in the middle of 2018 followed up with a 5 track debut EP “Brazos County Bound” in 2018 and a 7 song album “Secrets, Whiskey & Lies” released in March of 2021. 

Ben spent months playing acoustic shows and small band shows before forming the current band that backs him. Ben’s band consists of Sam Chance on drums, Noah McNabb and Dakota Hernandez on electric guitars ,and Cody McCallister on bass guitar.  Hailing from across the state of Texas they each bring their own strengths and stories that go into creating their on stage sound. 

A piano player since the age of seven, Ben’s unique gift is the fact that he can command the stage behind both a keyboard and a guitar. He treats the craft of songwriting like a puzzle, trying to find the best way to make the pieces fit while weaving a meaningful story throughout the song. His first major cut as a songwriter is one he previously released on his own project “Brazos County Bound”.  Amen will be the next single from Nashville recording artist Jacob Bryant, coming out in August 2021.  A songwriter, vocalist, and talented instrumentalist Ben Kadlecek aims to bring something new and creative to every listener.
