Benny Neyman, born as Wilhelmus Albertus Neyman on 9 June 1951 in Maastricht, was a beloved Dutch singer-songwriter renowned for his significant contributions to the Dutch pop music scene. Over the span of his career, which began in the late 1970s, Neyman developed a distinctive music style that skillfully blended elements of balladry with contemporary pop. His warm, emotive voice resonated deeply with fans across the Netherlands and beyond, securing a dedicated following that lasted throughout his lifetime.

Neyman achieved widespread recognition with hits such as "Ik weet niet hoe" and "Vrijgezel," and his discography is a testament to his versatility and enduring appeal. Albums like "Meer Dan Het Beste Van..." and "Zingt" showcased the breadth of his musical talent, while tunes such as "Zolang Je Bij Me Bent" continued to underscore his talent for tapping into the emotional heartbeat of his listeners. Even his more experimental works, such as "Hollands Glorie Kerst" and the cross-cultural "American Duets," reflect the adaptive nature of his artistic journey. Tragically, Benny Neyman's life was cut short when he passed away on 7 February 2008. However, his music remains a beloved part of Dutch cultural heritage, continuing to inspire and move new generations of listeners.
