Songwriting

A song can convey a wide range of emotion, it can tell a story, it can take you to another place or time. It can give voice to something that didn't have a voice before. It puts something tangible to the un-tangible.

With a shared love for eclectic studio experimentation, Ben and Bobby have developed a unique sound in their songs. Their work ranges from indie-rock, shoe-gazer to melancholy and down-tempo which has given backdrop to prime-time network television, including "Anthems and Cheers" featured in American Idol's 2011 season, and "Talks Like The Streets" on ABC's Revenge. In 2012, Bobby and Ben won and Emmy Award for Outstanding Original Song for 'Dust' as heard on General Hospital and Alias.

Their work has a live, in the moment feel, with songs including 'You Got a Secret' and 'Can We Still Be Friends', heard on ABC prime-time shows. This dynamic collaboration goes under the name The Buzzkills.
