Ben & Jason were a singer-songwriter duo from London consisting of Ben Parker and Jason Hazeley. Formed in 1998 and pre-empting the so-called New Acoustic Movement by about a year, they released three albums on Go! Beat/Universal: Hello, Emoticons and Ten Songs About You. When they were dropped from their major label deal, the band released their final album, Goodbye, on the independent label Setanta. As songwriters-for-hire, they collaborated with Mundy and Martine McCutcheon.

- Ben & Jason were a singer-songwriter duo from London consisting of Ben Parker and Jason Hazeley. Formed in 1998 and pre-empting the so-called New Acoustic Movement by about a year, they released three albums on Go! Beat/Universal: Hello, Emoticons and Ten Songs About You. When they were dropped from their major label deal, the band released their final album, Goodbye, on the independent label Setanta. As songwriters-for-hire, they collaborated with Mundy and Martine McCutcheon. Their biggest hit was Air Guitar, which reached #76 in the UK charts. Far better known is their collaboration with Kinobe, Slip Into Something... (from the album Soundphiles). The pair went their separate ways in December 2003 after disapointing results but excelent reviews from the penultimate album ten Songas About You and in particular the seminal masterpiece of a single, The Wild Things. Ben Parker went on to form the band Lux Luther with bass player Ollie Russian, drummer Ben Carpenter (now of the Creepy Morons) and guitarist Gavin Slater in 2004. After varying success on the London gig circuit the band split in May 2006 when Parker decided to go solo. Ben appeared on the 2004 CD Scissors In My Pocket by Polly Paulusma in 2004, toured the UK with David Berkeley in 2007 and is also collaborating with Sophie Solomon on her second solo studio album. Jason Hazeley now writes comedy, and is one of the authors of The Framley Examiner, Bollocks To Alton Towers, Far From The Sodding Crowd and Viz.
