George Benson
George Benson -Jazz Musician | Singer Born March 22, 1943 in Pittsburgh, PA A child singing prodigy, George Benson grew up to be an accomplished jazz guitarist, eventually crossing genre borders and having breakthrough radio success in the mid-1970s. Calling the seemingly mellow Benson a “multiple-threat performer,” The Times in 2000 described the artist as “an appealing singer and a master of fusion, funk and rhythm and blues.”
