Ben Sherman
@bensherman44.bsky.social
Guitarist and lover of all kinds of music, spiritual inspiration, silly humor, sci-fi, classic comics, the occasional political diatribe, and watching French chateaus being renovated. Husband to Crystal, my Queen.
We attended the Hands Off rally in Frederick, and it was fantastic. Inspiring to know we are not alone in thinking that things are not normal right now and not good for our country. Heartwarming to realize we are part of a great community that has a positive vision of what our country can be.

In 2024 I was truly honored and grateful to be asked to write a new foreword for the 20th anniversary edition of Zen Guitar, the brilliant book by the late Philip Sudo that has been hugely inspirational to me, as a musician and a person, for many years.

Ivan Sherman, my dad, passed twelve years ago, one day after turning 82. It is impossible to express the hugeness of his impact on my life, as a musician and a human being. I wish Bluesky allowed more text in posts, so I could say more about him. If you see me, ask me about my Dad!

He's a picker, he's a grinner.

Some call him the gangster of love.

My biggest guitar influence...some people call him the space cowboy.

Hello everywhere!
Bonus points if you can guess when, where and with what band this was from. In fact if you can do all that I'll declare you a genius right here!
