Ben Armstrong (bass player)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ben Armstrong started playing music early on, playing bass and singing for a few bands in Edwardsville, IL (The Latex Monkey Band, Resin, and Chalk 22), all with future Laddio Bolocko/The Psychic Paramount guitarist Drew St. Ivany. After forming Chalk 22 with former Dazzling Killmen drummer Blake Fleming, the band moved to New York City, gained saxophone player Marcus DeGrazia and formed Laddio Bolocko. After a couple of years touring (often with Japanese psych-rock legends Acid Mothers Temple and Trans Am), and releasing two full-length albums, and an EP, the band broke up in 2001. But soon after Armstrong and St. Ivany formed The Psychic Paramount, first with drummer Tatsuya Nakatani, then replacing him with former Sabers drummer Jeff Conaway.
