about

Cat Casual is William Benton, a guitarist/bassist/vocalist based in
New York. Together with his band, The Final Word, Benton writes
and performs psyche-inspired rock that ranges from dark, furious experimentalism to haunting, melodic melancholia. Frequent collaboration with disparate instrumentalists – including bassoon, synthesizer, and pedal steel – is a hallmark of the Cat Casual soundscape.

The music of Cat Casual and the Final Word is featured as the soundtrack for the 2023 documentary Ghosts of the Chelsea Hotel
(and Other Rock & Roll Stories), in which Benton also appears.
Noise Pollution Records will release an EP in coordination.

Benton has previously performed & toured with artists such as
Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Shilpa Ray, The Phantom Family Halo, and Ivan Julian (Richard Hell and the Voidoids). He has collaborated with legendary musicians Steve Wynn (Dream Syndicate), Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth), Makoto Kawabata (Acid Mothers Temple), and others. His own past bands have included the Louisville-based (and Noise Pollution alumni) Tyrone, Bodyhammer, and Lucky Pineapple.

In addition to performing his own music as leader of The Final Word, Benton DJs regularly in multiple venues around NY (DJ Cat Casual).
He has hosted radio shows in Brooklyn and in Louisville.

Benton was born and raised in Oklahoma.
