ABOUT ERIC BENÉT
Born and raised in Milwaukee, Eric Benét grew up surrounded by music. His siblings loved to sing and harmonize, which led him to form his first group, Benét, with his sister and cousin. Scoring their first record deal with EMI and creating a few tracks gave Eric the experience he needed to rise to eventual stardom. After Benét disbanded, he made more demos which found their way to Alison Ball at Warner Bros Records, who was also at EMI. She knew a hit when she heard one, and his second album, True to Myself, was released to great acclaim in 1996. The album featured hits such as “Spiritual Thang,” “Femininity,” and “Let’s Stay Together.” Benét is committed to the chariy In A Perfect World (www.IAPW.org/) which his wife, Manuela Testolini, started in 2005 to help break the cycle of poverty and illiteracy in poor countries. The charity has built 35 schools across eight different countries. The couple live in Los Angeles with their children, Lucia and Luna.
