Guitar slinger who fuses modern country with a traditional twist. Known for melodic, rhythmic acoustic and electric guitar parts, Ben Klick has recorded 2 studio albums in Nashville, numerous demos, scratch guide recordings for other projects, and been playing for over 20 years.
Acoustic or electric guitar tracks, banjo, session editing, and songwriting are all a part of what I do. I’ve had the pleasure of learning from and working alongside of some of the US and Canada’s top musicians, songwriters, and producers to create 2 EP’s, play on a number of songs released to radio, demo pitches, and more.
I specialize in country music, but have influences in Rock, Classic Rock, Folk, Blues, and more.

Ben is absolutely amazing to work with! I send him an original piano/vocal country song and needed a pitch ready guitar version. He delivered a top notch performance that far exceeded anything I could have imagined. Ben’s musical choices in his performance, instrumentation and production are outstanding and demonstrate a highly professional taste and technique. He has my highest recommendation and I’m excited to work with him again soon!!

I reached out to Ben on SoundBetter to do a simple guitar and voice demo and he blew me out of the water with what he delivered. He did several acoustic guitar tracks and an electric guitar track including lead-on and solo, shaker percussion, and voice with backups and harmonies. It turned out amazing. He was responsive, fast and professional! I will definitely work with him again!
