Ben Morgan, hailing from the Northern beaches of Sydney, Australia, began busking and performing along the east coast throughout 2022 as a 23yr old singer/songwriter and saxophonist. Preferring to stay outside of the big cities, he experimented with his unique blend of folk and blues in the post-pandemic climate until 2023, which saw him amass of total of 50,000 growing followers within a month across his social media and an immediate rise into the Folk scene.
For a young, blonde Aussie surfer cliche, Ben has a surprisingly mature voice which has been likened to Hozier, Matt Corby, and Ray Lamontagne and is deeply influenced by a unique blend of folk, blues and alternate/indie singer/songwriters including Ben Howard, Matt Corby and Patrick Watson.
‘I just want my music to be a soundtrack to life, all the light and shade. So I guess I naturally write songs that are quite emotionally driven and blend my early influences of folk with more open and alternate styles that have come through my love of the saxophone.’
