Benjamin B. was a Dutch indie guitar band from the northern town of Winschoten, The Netherlands, fronted by singer, guitarist and songwriter, Fiebo Scholtens. The group was active from 1994 to 2005. They never announced their split, but seemed to have silently disappeared by 2006.
Benjamin B. was founded as a three-piece: Scholtens, Barbara Lampe (bass) and Michel Weber (drums). Dutch indie label, Excelsior Recordings, signed them after having heard their self-titled 1995 début demo album.
