Benjamino is the genre-bending project of Sydney-based artist, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Benjamin Cauduro. Known for their rich blend of alt-R&B, nu-disco and dream pop, Benjamino crafts tracks that are both deeply introspective and made to move. Their music is packed with groove, wit, and a cinematic sense of emotion – blending intricate production with bold, heartfelt storytelling.
A seasoned audio engineer and lifelong musician, Benjamino has spent the past decade in the studio and on the stage, working with local and international artists and performing all across Australia. After years of writing and producing for others, Benjamino began releasing solo material in 2020, gradually establishing a sound that’s playful, polished, and unmistakably their own.
After collaborating with fellow alt-R&B artist meadowhip for On Repeat, they set sail on an East Coast tour of Australia, selling out shows in Brisbane, Melbourne and their hometown of Wollongong. The two also united for collaboration shows at the Coldplay event at Sydney Olympic Park in November 2024.
In 2025, they launched their most ambitious project yet: a series of monthly singles leading up to their debut album Cucino, due out in November. Named after the Italian word for “I cook,” the record is a lovingly crafted sonic meal – layered with lush production, playful storytelling, and emotional depth.
