In a world full of new music and exciting artists, Ben Ellis is one of the UK’s most exciting artists. With an ever growing platform of over 191,000 followers across all social media platforms. Ben's current catalogue speaks for itself with over 2.1 million streams, Spotify playlisting on New Music Friday UK, Fresh Finds, and SALT, a total of 19 weeks on BBC Radio Wales’s ‘Welsh A List’, and multiple BBC Radio 1 plays, supported by Mollie King, Jodie Bryant & Maia Beth. 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. Bens relationship with his fans is incredibly unique, as he has created a community that see him as a friend not just an artist. It was this natural social media utilisation that was at the centre of the success of Ben’s 2023 EP campaign, The Ed’s House EP. With a teaser campaign that accumulated more than 5 million views a cross TikTok and Instagram, he was able to sell the stories behind the EP to his pre existing fanbase and to a whole fresh audience. He did exactly the same with his previous releases “No One Sleeps In Hollywood”, and “DEEP!” utilising the story of the struggles he experienced whilst he was songwriting in Los Angeles, contrasted with an upbeat Pop anthem, also written in LA, with a music video filmed in his friends pool during a writing trip that he took out there in April. 2024 has been a strong year for Ben, with tracks penned with some of the UK & USA’s hottest songwriters and an ever growing catalogue of striking demos. Ben’s next few releases are set to take him to new heights. Ben is also really proud to be a Welsh artist. He started a new music night ‘PLUCK’ in Cardiff to champion new Welsh talent alongside BBC Radio 1 presenters Sam & Danni and his creative director Finlay McDonald. Bens previous projects have received huge support from BBC Radio 1 featuring on a variety of shows with Mollie King saying “He is one of the loveliest guys in Pop right now” and Jodie Bryant naming Ben as “One of the most exciting names in new music” in Radio 1’s Class of 2023. As well as this, Ben accumulated a total of 19 weeks on BBC Radio Wales’ “Welsh A -List” throughout the release of “The Ed’s House EP” and his previous tracks “No One Sleeps In Hollywood” and “DEEP!Disclaimer:
