Benjamin Orr The Legacy

Описание: Benjamin Orr/ The Legacy:
This group is in celebration of a musical legacy covering nearly 40 years. Benjamin Orr (born Benjamin Orzechowski) was the founding father, co-lead singer and bass player of the 1980's Supergroup, THE CARS. Benjamin is best known for his contributions to THE CARS, but also recorded his 1986 solo LP entitled "The Lace". He was an accomplished artist and musician and played drums, keyboards, rhythm guitar and bass. Benjamin toured as a solo artist with his own line up and band, "ORR", throughout the mid 1990's to his untimely death in 2000.

A man of extreme talent both on and off stage; he stole the hearts of thousands with his beautiful charm, charisma, striking good looks, as well as an incredible singing voice. Benjamin left a legacy behind that will never be forgotten... music that is timeless; friends, family and fans who loved him and admired him. The man who was so elegant, simple and classic lost his battle with pancreatic cancer in 2000 leaving many fans, dear friends and a beautiful son, his spitting image, broken hearted.

At The Legacy we CELEBRATE his life and what he had to offer; his DRIVE, compassion, love and devotion to the music which ran through his blood now runs through ours. Everyday you are thought of Benjamin in love, memory, and in spirit.

This website is BY THE FANS, FOR THE FANS who keep his legacy alive and strong! Benjamin you were, JUST WHAT WE NEEDED!
