Multo bene, Benny!! Italian superstar Benny Benassi has one of the most recognizable names in music. Whether you’re a college kid who cares more about getting wasted than what song is on, an electronic dance aficionado, a parent who loves the song from that one Wendy’s commercial, or someone who watches the Grammy’s, you know about Benny Benassi.

Benny has been winning awards ever since he stepped foot on the international stage. 2003 Revelation of the year at the Italian Dance Music Awards; 2003 Dance Revelation of the year at the Danish Music Awards; 2003 DJ Mag tune of the year (Satisfaction); 2004, highest new entry rating in the DJ Mag top 100 (18); 2004 Best Video at Dancestar, Miami; 2006, “Hit my Heart” selected as the opening for the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show; 2008 Grammy for Best Remixed Recording (Public Enemy – Bring the Noise).

Some of Benny’s hottest tracks include “Gimme, Gimme, Gimme,” “Come Fly Away,” (with a sick remix by Adam K & Soha) “I Am Not Drunk,” “Love is Gonna Save Us,” (a personal favorite of Benny’s) and “Who’s Your Daddy.” (with a ridiculous David Guetta remix)

Benassi is currently working on a new artist album slated for release sometime this year. The first single is called “Spaceship,” and features Kelis, Apl.De.Ap. (Black Eyed Peas), and Jean Baptiste. Check out Italian superstar Benny Benassi Saturday night at Fur Nightclub.
