With full access to his mother’s impeccable record collection, featuring legends like The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Sam & Dave, and many more 60s greats, the kid from NYC – Benny Trokman, was destined to set sail on his own musical journey.. picking up instruments early in life and after years of performing around the world with artists like Lee Fields, Marky Ramone, Sharon Jones, and currently serving as the bassist for Spoon – Benny Trokan has released his debut full-length solo album, Do You Still Think of Me.
Do You Still Think of Me captures the rawness you’d expect from an artist steeped in the soulful rock ‘n roll of yesteryear. It’s filled with garage-like swagger and an immediate sense of nostalgia.
Benny Trokan takes the listener through a diverse range of 60s-influenced music, from the moody teen-beat bop to the garage-dwelling angst of Nowhere to Be Found, to the sweet soul sound on the album’s title track. Yet, it’s Benny’s raspy, vulnerable lead vocal that ties together this stunning collection of modern pop rock. Do You Still Think of Me is a refreshing release from a seasoned veteran – undoubtedly worth the wait & retro from day one. Trokan creates music that goes beyond the A side – it’s pure B-side magic, crafted with a natural ease that defines his style.
