About the Artist
Singer, songwriter Ben Bledsoe has spent his life performing. He began with stage acting at age 12, and quickly progressed to print modeling, national commercials, and network and cable television shows. At the same time his acting career began, he also started to pursue music, first by singing and then by learning to play the bass.
At age 16, Ben joined the Band Natural, and spent the next six years recording, touring, and performing all around the world. The band received two Gold records for singles in the U.S., and won awards throughout Europe and Asia. Ben was instrumental in both writing and producing songs for the bands two albums (both Top-10 in Germany, Asia and Japan), as well as being a lead vocalist.
Now pursuing a solo career, Ben has spent the last several months playing guitar and piano, and writing new music for his own use, as well as writing and producing songs for other artists. He has collaborated on songs with such notable writers/producers as Tony Scalzo and Miles Zuniga (from the band Fastball), Richie Supa (Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Pink), Douglas Carr (Ace of Base, Britney Spears, Nick Carter), and Anders Wikstrom & Fredrik Thomander of Epicentre (*NSYNC, Nikki Cleary, Luis Fonsi).
"I have a sound in my head that Im really excited to bring out in my music," says Ben. "All the writing Ive been doing has really helped me to hear my own voice." Ben worked with producer Billy Chapin when recording his solo debut album, An Insomniacs Guide to a Lonely Heart, released July 19, 2005. With a range of songs such as the up-tempo Gotta Get Away, and raucous (I Love Everything About You But Your) Boyfriend, as well as the beautiful My Way, and the haunting Drownin, Bens unique, strong voice and contemporary style offer something for everyone. He wrote or co-wrote all of the tracks on the album, and played a number of the musical instruments as well.
In recent months Ben has been performing shows around the country for events such as "Relief. A Benefit for Tsunami Victims", the Seventeen Magazine/JCPenny "Rock Your Prom" Tour, a number of festival dates, Grad Nite at SeaWorld, House of Blues, and several Radio Disney concerts. He looks forward to getting out on the road with his new material and performing for the fans, both old and new alike.
