Benjamin Bear, perhaps best known for his work with Florida nerdcore group Emergency Pizza Party, has never been afraid to blend music genres to his will.

His style is a result of an eclectic blend of influences, including 1970s era progressive rock, industrial metal, grunge, underground hip-hop, and folk music. The resulting production combined with his left-of-center perspective on life has garnered him a cult following and critical acclaim for not only his free-to-download albums, but also his energetic live shows.
In 2011, Benjamin released "Tuesday," which Wired.com described as "speed rhyming with a sardonic kick," stating that "even if you don't enjoy rap or hip-hop you'll most likely enjoy this." His name does not come from a Canadian cartoon or an underground clothing line, but was the name of a teddy bear that was well used during his formidable childhood years. He does not have a Wikipedia entry because he is not important enough to the internet.
When not making music or complaining, Benjamin can be found loafing around his house. He's a pretty good cook, but also socially inept, so he rarely has anyone over for dinner.
He loves Twizzlers.

NOTE: There was also a band from Seattle who briefly used the name "Benjamin Bear" whose music can be heard here. If you are looking for them, try searching for "OK Campfire" or possibly "Campfire OK."
