Ben​ ​Phantom ​is​ a​ ​​songwriter, videographer, multi instrumentalist, music producer, traveler, and long distance hiker. His path, carved by music, has taken him from the North American wilderness to Vietnam, Cambodia, Israel, Central America, and finally to his mountain home in Asheville, North Carolina.  Phantom ​is​ ​a passionate​ ​and​ ​captivating​ performer​ ​who​ ​writes​ ​from​ ​the​ ​heart​, ​speaks ​to​ ​the​ ​soul, and never forgets to find the humor in life. He believes that we heal each other through building community, developing deep relationships, and being of service.

His father’s family escaped the Vietnam War, and his mother’s family survived the Holocaust.  As a Vietnamese Jewish American, Phantom uses his music to bridge cultural barriers, honor the past, and create a better future.  He carries a strong message of hope and resilience; his mission is to tell stories that heal and create sustainable community.
