"With powerful vocals and infectious melodies, BEN RANSOM has all the hallmarks of a classic artist and performer."

Before we get into the music side of Ben's career...here's some things you may not know....

BEN RANSOM reflects all that is great about Australian music, with tracks translating perfectly from recording to live performance and continuously delivering a smoking hot and energetic live show.

Born and raised in Sydney, Ben started playing guitar and writing songs since the age of 15. From early days, his constant exposure to a broad range of musical influences, like Irish Folk, traditional country and classic standards, through to Australian 'Pub Rock' and modern pop, has led Ben to develop an appreciation and knowledge for many styles of Music. This knowledge is incorporated into his multi-faceted approach to his song writing which has an uncanny ability to draw in the listener on several different levels. 

Leaving Australia in 1999, BEN spent two and a half years in Europe, honing his skills and developing his style.  He cut his teeth in the heart of London’s West End with a permanent residency in one of the most happening venues and quickly became one of the hottest, most sought after artists in that scene. It was often said he “brought the spirit of a B&S Ball to the heart of London” with every performance!  Ben toured extensively throughout the UK and Europe, proving a hit with his searing raw talent and on stage persona, before returning to Australia where his passion in music held root.

In October 2010, BEN completed his first CD 'THE LONG WAY' (only available through the website). Far from being his definitive debut album, 'THE LONG WAY' was a labor of love that gave him a vehicle of expression, exploring all facets to his personality and allowing him to display his passion for music. 

In May 2011, BEN released his first single 'BOURBON&SUNSETS',  a song in the tradition of classics that turned into a runaway Top 10 Hit, peaking at No.2 on the Hot Country Top 50 and performing solidly in CMC's Top 50!  In conjunction with his debut release BEN picked up three nominations in the 2011 AIADA's (The Australian Independent Artists Development Awards). Following the success of his debut single, BEN cemented his name in the industry to prove that he is no 'flash in the pan' with the release of his follow up single 'LONG HOT DAYS' which gained national airplay, peaking at No. 16 on the Hot Country Top 50. This follow up single saw him team up with industry heavyweights and Award wining line-up Glen Hannah and Matt Fell.  

In kicking off 2012, BEN was successful in becoming a finalist in the coveted Toyota Star Maker competition and in July 2012, became a Graduate of the CMAA ACADEMY OF COUNTRY MUSIC. 

By September 2012, Ben had completed recording his 'official' debut album (SLOW BURN) with Matt Fell and Glen Hannah. The first single 'TRUCK STOP HONEY' was popular all around Australia receiving national airplay and was nominated as a finalist in the Tamworth Songwriters Association Awards for Contemporary Song of the Year (2013). Once again Ben was acknowledged as one of Australia's great emerging talents by securing a spot in the final 15 for the 34th Toyota Star Maker competition 2013.  
'SLOW BURN' the official debut album was released to great reviews in March 2013 and saw further releases of the singles 'BIG COUNTRY SKY' and 'YOU'RE ON TOP OF MY 'TO-DO' LIST'. Throughout the winter of 2013, Ben was responsible for co-ordinating and hosting a monthly country showcase in the heart of Sydney that saw at least 20 established and emerging artists perform in what was at the time, one of the premier live music venues. He also was responsible for co-ordinating a start-up music festival in NSW's central west... "Woodstock NSW Music Festival"
National touring, appearances at major festivals as well as an international tour were highlights during the second half of 2013 as well as being a finalist in two categories at the 2013 Mildura Southern Star Awards (Best Male Artist, Best New Talent). 

In October 2013, Ben was introduced to #1 international hit maker and multi-million record selling producer ROB E.G PORTER. This resulted in the collaboration and release under the WIZARD RECORD label of a brand new single, a re-make of the Jackson Browne Classic 'SOMEBODY'S BABY'. The track was launched at the 2014 Tamworth Country Music Festival where Ben performed 19 shows in 10 days to rave reviews and also scored nominations in four categories of the 2014 Country Music Peoples Choice Awards (Best Male Artist, Best Song, Best New Talent, Best Album). The new single entered the Amrap/AirIt charts at #10 on release.
