DANIEL BLUE: MEET BEN ROTH >>>

Tacomafilesbenroth Tacomafilesart Ben Roth has little time for gazing into the camera.  He is busy with multiple projects such as co-founding Dear Records and being one of the best guitar players in Tacoma.  His main squeeze Banners is pretty much a mathy mix of Anthony and the Johnsons and Minus the Bear.   

Ben is most always smiling, very little seems to affect his joy.  He often works as a stagehand for the Local 15 stage hand's union, which means I walk downstairs in the warehouse and find him whistling away as he loads boxes of speakers and stuff through my kitchen. He is very nice to my cats, and for that has won my loyalty for life. I will bite anyone's arms off if they mess with my Roth. 

Ben is a recent product of the Tacoma School of the Arts, and has been studying at Tacoma Community College for the past year.   Like many SOTA kids, Ben is smarter and more knowledgeable than I am about most things related to music and the art world.  Though he did not grow up weeping to Nirvana as I did, he can play most any song that was on the radio in 1992, or any other grungy year for that matter.  His music ability is downright creepy, but I'm not sure he has signed any contracts with the devil; perhaps he is a child of David Lee.
