Rainforest Benefit started performing at the college club Catcall. The drummer was encouraged to play by his sister. The guitarist was heavily influenced by his family's love for music. Rainforest Benefit’s members were friends in middle school. Madonna heavily influenced the early work of the band.

Rainforest Benefit's new record has been heavily influenced by bands of the '50s. The band is in the start of the accompanying tour for their newest record. After this last busy year the members of Rainforest Benefit will take some time off.

Often times, critics praise Rainforest Benefit for their ability to energize the crowd at live shows. Phoenix music critic Irwin Hemmingway has always commended band’s great rhythms. Rainforest Benefit’s newest project is the group’s best received record yet.

Rainforest Benefit were relieved when their single climbed the charts. They had heard too many stories of bands with record deals going nowhere. The band regularly played at Hamper before making it to the big time.

Rainforest Benefit respects the fact that their fans love their older records, so they go to great effort to incorporate the past hits with the new ones. The band has always had a good time in Champaign so they make sure to play there every year, even if they are not promoting anything.
