Some Stories Have To Be Sung

Benjamin Scheuer uses his guitar—actually, six guitars—in The Lion, a wholly original musical experience of one man’s gripping coming-of-age story.
The award-winning songwriter inspires and disarms with his raw wit and emotional depth as he leads you on his heartfelt journey to manhood, discovering redemption through the power of music. His surprising story is about courage. His songs are how he finds it. Much like its hero, The Lion mixes power and beauty in a one of a kind experience.

Written & Performed By Benjamin Scheuer
