Benjamin Lee Kenney, Sr. (born on March 12, 1977), is a musician from Brielle, NJ United States, and the bassist for the band Incubus.
Ben Kenney played guitar for the hip-hop group The Roots before he joined Incubus in 2003 after the departure of bassist and founding member Alex Katunich aka Dirk Lance. He had previously played with Incubus members Mike Einziger and Jose Pasillas in Time Lapse Consortium.
The introduction of Kenney into the group marked a shift in the band’s sound. His tight grooves and hip hop influenced sound replaced previous bassman Dirk Lance’s funky bass lines. Apart from changing the groove and the style of Incubus’ work, he also added backing vocals to their songs (Mike Einziger used to do them), adding extra harmonies to each song, examples of which can be heard in the songs Agoraphobia, Pendulous Threads and Diamonds and Coal.
He also plays in his own band, The Division Group, (formerly known as Supergrub) with Neal Evans of Soulive and Ashley Mendel.
Ben is known to play 6 different instruments and sometimes plays drum solos with Incubus’ drummer Jose Pasillas live on-stage.
He has also done studio work for artists including: Justin Timberlake, Faith Evans, Erykah Badu, Blackalicious, and producers Timbaland and DJ Jazzy Jeff.

Honestly, I like this guy's solo stuff more than Incubus. This is some really original rock, dipping with a variety of influences in each song. You can find the albums on iTunes.
