Ben Pagano: Performing Artist in New York

About Ben Pagano

Ben Pagano is a New York City–based electronic artist in Cassette’s small-room circuit, where close listening matters as much as volume. He has shared bills with Carlos Truly, Dhemo, Key Hutch, Miles Hewitt, Andy Nicholl, Drawl, Slow Down Sunny, and Untitled Freak, moving between club lineups and more hybrid scenes tagged by Spotify as anti-folk. Pagano’s sets tend to be built from texture and pacing, with careful sound design guiding transitions rather than big gestures. Recent appearances include the Cassette program around “JOHNNY ELSEWHERE (ALBUM RELEASE),” alongside Pynkie and Jacob Tremont.
