Artist description Taking all sorts of music from 60's rock to disco, Benevolent Acorn is the only band of its kind. The songs contain many changes and moods along with lyrics that only a gifted few can really understand. If you are saying "I don't get this", there is nothing to get. This is insanity in its purist form. Welcome to another dimension..the dimension of Benevolent Acorn. Sane people beware.

Music Style Nonsensical ramblings set to melodies which are inscribed somewhere in every person's soul

Musical Influences Bonzo Dog Band, Dream Theater and Frank Zappa (for the changes)

Similar Artists No one...Nothing sounds like this...

Artist History It all began in 2002 when Sam heard Ryan's album Westmoreland. Being terribly sick at the time, the CD warped his mind and he wrote his own song entitled Ball Point Pen (Pigs Wearing Liederhosen). Ryan was pleasantly surprised to hear stuff that was similar to his own and Sam proposed forging an alliance to bring insanity to the masses. With the addition of Dave Jake for live drums, and Norbert their mascot Benevolent Acorn has begun their seige on serious music.
