Benmont Tench is a founding member of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and one of contemporary music’s finest organ players, piano players, anything- with-keys players. In addition to all of the Heartbreakers recordings, Tench has played on records by Stevie Nicks, Willie Nelson, Green Day, Bob Dylan, Neil Diamond, The Chicks, The Replacements, John Prine, Waylon Jennings, John Fogerty, Elvis Costello, The Rolling Stones, and Johnny Cash just to name a few. Jimmy Iovine, man of many hats and former Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' producer, puts it this way: "If you want a track to sound better, you just put Benmont's part higher in the mix.” Benmont Tench’s second solo LP The Melancholy Season will be released March 7, 2024 on Dark Horse Records. The Melancholy Season is Benmont Tench's true arrival as a singer-songwriter, without compromise or doubt. It was produced by Jonathan Wilson–an acclaimed singer-songwriter and touring guitarist for Roger Waters who has worked on career-defining albums for Dawes, Father John Misty and Margo Price–with an attention to the space and intimacy where the best songs breathe and resonate.
