Originally hailing from the Empire State, Blended is a powerful Christian duo that consists of husband-and-wife team Ben Frank and LaShay Monroe. Now based in North Carolina, their journey started separately as solo artists in New York, but their steps have been ordered with every mile. As a duo, they released their first single " Love Me Like You Do" in 2016, two years after their marriage. LaShay would describe her sound as soulful; Ben simply considers his music to be honest reflections on the various aspects of life as a Christian, husband, and father. Together, their music is purposed to provoke thoughtfulness, facilitate spiritual, emotional, and mental healing and, above all else, " lead people to the God that restores." They have five beautiful daughters and currently serve Wellspring Church in Charlotte, North Carolina.
