Ben Westwood

About

“Straight from the heart #nofilter, this is music that is honest and unafraid” – Camilla Lake, East Sussex Newspapers

“The single Falling is excellent.” – Geoff Dorset, Express FM

“We’ve got it made is a beautiful song.” – Stuart Epps, Music Producer (Elton John, Oasis)

 

Ben Westwood's debut album Sing like your life depends on it, released in February 2017, has gained considerable attention in press and radio across the south-east.

 

The Sussex singer-songwriter returned to music after several years abroad, following the death of his wife Carolina from cancer. A heartfelt and deeply personal collection of acoustic-led songs, Ben's album takes listeners on a journey. 

 

The first half begins with optimistic songs – the catchy single Falling, the uplifting Let in The Light, and beautiful ballad We’ve Got it Made, co-produced by legendary Stuart Epps. The second half navigates through grief – from the heart-wrenching I Miss You, to the dark intensity of Hold Me ‘til it Hurts, and the soothing conclusion of Time, Heal Me, I Will Never Leave You and Moment of Peace.

 

Performing live, Ben concentrates on his more upbeat material, interspersed with a wide repertoire of quality covers. His music blends bluesy folk-rock with soulful ballads.
