Midlife Music

This channel was created by Benjy Gottesman to showcase songs from his Midlife Music Project—a collection of 12 original songs released over the year leading up to his 40th birthday.

A father of two young children and a full-time psychologist, Benjy has been playing guitar and writing songs since his teen years. Like many, however, his musical pursuits were at times overshadowed by the responsibilities and demands of daily life.

This project became a way to reconnect with a creative spark that had been dormant for years. It is an invitation to musicians, artists, and creators of all kinds to continue exploring and expressing their creativity—even amidst the busyness of work and family life.
