Blessed in Ghana to some British mom and Ghanaian dad, Rhian Benson had a globetrotting youth moving from her birthplace to India and finally settling within the U.K. She started playing piano young, writing her 1st song at age group nine. It wasn’t until after university that she started to consider her music significantly and started performing her soft, jazzy soul tracks in small night clubs in London. Ultimately Benson was authorized and released her 1st album, Gold Coastline, in 2003.
