Ben Lee: OMG I'm Playing Gigs Again! Tour 2021

Ben Lee began his career as a young teenager in the early 90’s, in the Australian lo-fi punk band Noise Addict, who were discovered by taste-making artists Sonic Youth and the Beastie Boys.
From his first acoustic-driven solo album “Grandpaw Would” in 1995 (featuring Liz Phair), Ben’s songs have always attempted to take his most complex and existential romantic yearnings, and compress them into sublimely catchy and melodic pop songs. This seemingly paradoxical quest has yielded some wonderful results over the years: it was 2005’s “Awake is the New Sleep” that saw Ben get the worldwide recognition his songs deserved spawning the alterna-hit “Catch My Disease” that went Top 10 in Spain and the Netherlands and was awarded the “Song of theYear” ARIA award as well as going Double Platinum in Australia. But it was the song “We’re All in this Together” that surely is Ben’s greatest legacy so far as a songwriter.

2021 is shaping up to be another wild ride as Ben preps for the release of his forthcoming album featuring collaborations with Shamir, ChrisAan Lee Hudson, Money Mark, Sadie Dupuis and Zooey Deschanel.

“I dont look at life as a linear adventure,” he explains “I very rarely know where I'm going next - I follow what I am passionate about and where I can be useful.
