About Benjamin Jaffe

Benjamin Jaffe makes music that moves—between Americana, chamber folk, groove, and jazz—warm, worn-in, and restlessly curious.

His latest record, Songs for Agreement (2026), released on Theo Katzman's label 10 Good Songs, earned a Bandcamp New & Notable distinction and marks the fullest expression yet of a sound he's spent years building. He tours as guitarist with Kacey Musgraves, including a performance at Austin City Limits 2024.

His solo catalog includes Enlightenment with Bill.E (2022–2023) and Oh Wild Ocean of Love (2018), both on Diamond Family Records. Earlier, he co-founded honeyhoney with Suzanne Santo—a band that built a devoted following for its raw, emotionally direct songwriting.

He has also scored music for film and television, including Joy Joy Nails (Tribeca Film Festival, 2017) and the TBS series The Guest Book.
