Casey Benjaminconstantly pushed past the limits of music and genre. He pioneered a unique style on the saxophone, aerophone and vocoder, and developed a sound that was wholly original. Through his melodic ingenuity on the vocoder and vocals, textual mastery on the keytar and spiky virtuosity on the alto saxophone, soprano saxophone, tenor saxophone and wind synthesizer, Casey gave the Robert Glasper Experiment its most defining sounds that enabled it to earn two GRAMMY awards and gain international acclaim in the jazz, R&B and hip-hop scenes. He suffered a pulmonary thromboembolism and passed away March 30th, 2024 at the age of 45.
