Above and beyond a roster of jazz luminaries, he has played with Josh Groban, Diplo, Ben Folds, and a multi-hyphenate Isaac Mizrahi. Continuing themes from last year's DCWJBF, Benack's resume includes episodes with "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" house band. You can also catch him on Emmet Cohen's "Emmet's Place" livestream. Benack has deeply musical Pittsburgh roots. His grandfather Benny Benack wrote "Beat 'em Bucs."
