Burnley says that The Nirvana was his greatest influence in music. He taught himself how to play guitar in his early teen years by listening to Nirvana’s album ‘Nevermind’. Before hitting it big and reaching sustainable levels of fame, Burnley mad a living by playing and recording cover versions of songs and mixing in his own songs at coffee shops. He often shared the stage with other local neighborhood musicians.

In early 2002, over a dozen record companies visited a two-night showcase where Breaking Benjamin was playing, and the group subsequently signed with Hollywood Records. Shortly afterward, Breaking Benjamin began recording their first full-length major-label record, Saturate, which was released on August 7, 2002, and produced by Ulrich Wild. It peaked at No. 136 on the Billboard 200, and was later certified gold on September 25, 2015. In early 2003, Breaking Benjamin participated in the Jägermeister Music Tour, then toured as a supporting act for Godsmack. Despite significant lineup changes, the band’s musical style and lyrical content have remained consistent, with Burnley serving as the primary composer and lead vocalist since the band’s inception. The band has commonly been noted for its formulaic hard rock tendencies with angst-heavy lyrics, swelling choruses, and “crunching” guitars.
Other songs that he has done collaborations with are yet to be released the Song like The End of the Day. The 45-year-old American rock singer is married to Rhiannon Napier. Benjamin Burnley remains relatively discreet when it comes to his love life. Regardless of his marital status, we are rooting for his. In 1999, Burnley returned to Pennsylvania and formed a band named ‘Plan 9’ with his friend Jeremy Hummel, the drummer.
This was my first opportunity to see this band live after listening to them for so long. I was so pumped for the show, buying tickets as soon as they were available, only to be let down! Love this band, but I won’t be buying tickets to see them as a headliner anymore. So happy they are touring with such an awesome group.
It would make for the perfect atmosphere for a Breaking Benjamin concert, as out of all of those bands; there might be no finer live act than the Pennsylvania natives. A show of theirs may look like any other polished, arena rock spectacular on the surface but as with anything, scratch the surface and you get something much more interesting. Recent shows have seen not just raucous airings of classics like Evil Angel, The Diary of Jane and Dance with the Devil but also a powerful cover of Aerosmith’s Dream On whilst a video of dearly departed Rock stars plays behind them. From early 2010 to July 2013 they were completely on hiatus because of a lawsuit between Benjamin Burnley (Singer/writer/guitarist) and Aaron fink /Mark Kelpaski . The lawsuit was because of the newer version of “Blow Me Away” featuring valora. He didn’t want to do it and said it didn’t meet his standards as a song writer.
Life and career
Of course their most famous singles “Breathe” and “Diary of Jane” caused the biggest roar from the crowd all night but combined with some of their newer songs and covers like Tool’s “Enema” and “Schism”. Breaking Benjamin currently consists of Benjamin Burnley on guitar and lead vocals, Shaun Foist as the drummer, Keith Wallen on guitar and backing vocals, Jasen Rauch as the lead guitarist, and Aaron Bruch on bass and backing vocals. Although the line up of the band has altered considerably over the years, the refreshing alterations of band members appears to have, if anything, strengthened the sound and dynamics of the band. After the band entered their hiatus in 2010, Mark Klepaski and Aaron Fink were dismissed from the band, parting under sour circumstances.

However in May 2016, he and his band members traveled through ferry ship to Europe and made their first musical tour outside of the US and Canada. Breaking Benjamin again toured Europe in 2017 successfully. Burnley also suffers from hypochondria and a fear of the dark. He says that he does not believe in a person’s time to die and he wants to put off dying for as long as he possibly can, which is why he does not fly or even ride in a car unless it is necessary. In 1999, Ben Burnley moved back to Pennsylvania, and started a band called “Plan 9” with drummer Jeremy Hummel.
It was also brought to my attention that this concert was to show off their new album Dark before Dawn, 6 years after their last albums.
