Benny bio
Benny Fiacco
Owner/ Bass and Ukelele Instructor
In 1981, A young Benny felt that something was missing from the area: a one-stop-shop for musicians to go that felt personal, where they knew what gear you had and could always recommend something new, where you could show support of bands big and small. He decided if no one else would make that store, he would. From a small store front in downtown Binghamton, to an Upstate New York legend, Benny has been the face, heart, and soul of Music City for over 40 years. Benny was inducted into the "Broome County Forum Wall of Stars" on June 20th 2024 in honor of his years of work in the areas music scene.
Benny plays bass and guitar and is currently a part of local bands "Frostbit Blue", "Nick G. and the Neons" and "B3"
