Ben Blakeman
Ben Bakeman was born in Salford, England on September 27, 1963 and hadn't heard of the Cocteau Twins until 1989 when his girlfriend suggested that he answer an ad in a music paper looking for "a guitar player who likes the Cocteau Twins." His background is strange for a Cocteau Twin as it consists of playing with a psychobilly band The Highliners and being a stripogram. His versatility as a guitarist enables him to pick things up very quickly, and he's been invaluable in the live set-up. He is currently recording an album with Lulabox and getting used to being married.
