Musician, songwriter, arranger, sound engineer, voice over artist, music producer, Robby Benson has had a recording studio in his home since the '70's -- the equipment has changed radically since then, but the purpose is the same: Music!!! (and recording his own voice overs via ISDN lines for clients like GE, etc.) After finishing 8 months work on his Creation Station for Lyric's Love Light Revolution with his daughter Lyric Benson, Mitch Gallagher interviewed Robby for Sweetnotes, a publication of sweetwater.com.

Check out Robby's entire interview at FOX.com -- from Ice Castles to Beauty and the Beast 3D and the genius of the Alan Menken, Howard Ashman, and the brilliant animators; Robby's love of music and the love of his life, Karla DeVito, and the new project of which he's most proud, producing Lyric Benson's debut album LYRIC'S LOVE LIGHT REVOLUTION! Now Available on iTunes.
The musical collaboration of Lyric and Robby Benson, LYRIC’S LOVE LIGHT REVOLUTION brings the poetry of cosmic consciousness to Earth with the power of modern rock — flaming guitar, eco-psychedelic hip-pop, atmospheric electronica, and a fat bottom. Play it loud, bring your air guitar, and plan on singing along. Dance if you want to.
Robby Benson has almost finished his memoir, I'M NOT DEAD... YET!
I'M NOT DEAD... YET! is a funny and poignant look at surviving four open heart surgeries for a congenital valve defect, while forging ahead with a dynamic creative career in and out of Hollywood.
