Benj Pasek & Justin Paul --- has anyone ever contacted this composing team? I really wanted a CD of Edges and some sheet music to "boy with dreams" and a few others, but they haven't responded back. Just wondering if it usually takes them a long time or what. Thanks.

Wow! I've never heard of them, but I just listened to some of their clips and I'm pretty impressed. And the Facebook song is pretty funny.

Edges is great!
These guys are super busy right now so just give them a bit and they should get back to you.
I would encourage everyone to go to their site and check them out!

Benj and Justin are fantastic and I'm actually putting together a concert of their stuff at Joe's Pub on May 14th.

Apparently that concert is already sold-out, but we will more than likely be adding a performance, so keep your eyes peeled!

Wow,

I really like their stuff. In fact, one of my friends mentioned how similar their stuff is to the kind of stuff I write (although there's is definitely better and more polished). I look forward to seeing what they do with their book musical in the works.

I had pleasure of meeting Benj at my University of Michigan audition in February. I had heard a couple of their songs, and saw Benj on his name-tag so I figured it was him. He was checking us into the rooms for the audition. He was really nice, and surprised that I had actually heard of his stuff. Anyway I hope they become really successful, they definitely deserve it.

I really like their stuff. It took a few days for me to hear back from them when i e-mailed them, but they were really nice.

They're fairly young -- still in college, I believe. And very promising.
