Adventure's Benny Boeldt grew up in Durham, North Carolina. After graduating from high school, he left for Greenville North Carolina to attend East Carolina University, where he studied painting and drawing alongside friends Future Islands. It is there where Boeldt first developed an interest in writing and composing electronic music. After going by several different names when performing live, Adventure was finally chosen as the permanent title for Boeldt's solo performances. After Graduating from ECU in 2007, Boeldt made the move to Baltimore, Maryland with encouragement from his friends Dan Deacon, OCDJ, and Videohippos, the latter of which he would later join for their last tour to Mexico and back. Since moving to Baltimore, Boeldt has toured extensively, both for Adventure's first self titled release on Carpark Records in 2008, and also as a full time member of the Dan Deacon Ensemble. After taking a year hiatus from writing new pop material and experimenting with new and different ways of songwriting, Boeldt began working on his second release for Carpark Records entitled Lesser known, this time with the addition of voice and word.
