My legal name is Satya Lincoln Johnson, but I go by Satch, which rhymes with watch, not patch. In December 2021, I started using Benson as my last name.

#### Music Tastes
I like long walks on the beach. But more than that, of course, I like Pink Floyd, Yes, Jacob Collier, the Beatles, and lots of fiddlin' jams, mind blowing classical compositions, and snippets of birdsong, from the beginning of music way back in the day all the way through to the present.
I also play the violin :)
