About Ben Chasny
Artist Biography
Guitarist, vocalist, and underground hero Ben Chasny has explored several paths during his multi-decade career, from mystical avant-folk to scorching noise-rock. His most prolific body of work has been his drone-heavy experimental folk project Six Organs of Admittance, who have released dozens of records since the late 1990s. However, he was also a major part of Comets on Fire, an influential heavy psych band whose Echoplex-heavy sound combined space rock, garage punk, and free-form jamming. Chasny has also been a driving force behind other projects such as the all-star experimental ensemble Badgerlore, the improv rock trio Rangda, the lo-fi folk duo New Bums, and several others. He has additionally appeared on recordings by artists such as Current 93, Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Howlin Rain, and Magik Markers. In 2021, Chasny released the solo acoustic record The Intimate Landscape, his first solo album under his own name.
