Ben Ellis
About
With a fast-growing fanbase and over 170’000 followers across social media, Ben Ellis is starting to cement himself as one of the UK’s most exciting artists. Ben’s current catalogue speaks for itself with over 700’000 streams, Spotify playlisting on New Music Friday UK and Fresh Finds, three weeks on BBC Radio Wales’s ‘Welsh A-List’, and multiple Radio 1 plays.
With a strong grasp on the powers of social media, Ben utilises these platforms to showcase his music and also to engage with his audience in a way that brings them along on his journey. It was this natural social media utilisation that was at the centre of the success of Ben’s last release, Sofia. With a teaser campaign that accumulated more than 3 million views across TikTok and Instagram, he was able to sell the story behind the song to his pre-existing fanbase and to a whole fresh audience.
This year is shaping up to be a strong year for Ben, with tracks penned with some of the UK’s hottest songwriters and an ever-growing catalogue of striking demos. Ben’s next few releases are set to take him to new heights.
