Published in Band Members 1 min read

Yes, two of the prominent founding members of the band Ben&Ben, Paolo Benjamin Guico and Miguel Benjamin Guico, are indeed twin brothers.

The Origins of Ben&Ben and Their Twin Founders

The name "Ben&Ben" is closely associated with the surnames of its founding members, Paolo Benjamin Guico and Miguel Benjamin Guico, who are twin brothers. Their journey in music began long before the formation of Ben&Ben.

Early Musical Ventures

During the 2000s, while still in high school, Paolo and Miguel were part of a cover band called Deadline. This period fostered their passion for music, as they immersed themselves in an "after-school culture" of performing. They frequently covered songs from popular bands of the era, including:

  • Paramore
  • Yellowcard
  • Urbandub

Their dedication to music saw them participate in various amateur band competitions, honing their skills and preparing them for their future success with Ben&Ben. This shared history and their unique bond as twin brothers have been foundational to the identity and sound of the band.
