Ben Elliot was recently voted by the BBC and the British Academy of Composers & Songwriters, as one of the UKs best new talents. Along with 15 other artist from around the UK, he spent 2 days at the BBC in Glasgow attending the BBC Radio 2 - New Songwriters Academy. To find out more visit the BBC New Talent website.
Ben Elliot is an innovative songwriter from York in the UK. His music draws together influences from rock, pop, film scores and much more.
He creates a juxtaposition of styles and instruments to create his own unique brand of popular music. With a background in rock and metal coupled with a love of film music he self-produces solid anthems worthy of todays mainstream. His songs are a step ahead of the rules and confinements that hinder modern pop music and his trademarks of complex structures, harmonies, time signatures chord progressions and instrumentation are tribute to this.
He has the ability to provide enough originality and innovation to make each song alternatively masterful, while still maintaining a dark credibility most popular musicians strive for. Every song is hand-sculpted and pushes boundaries with every aspect of his song-writing

Dude, I saw your bulletins and I just wanted to drop by and tell you how much I really like your new songs. Especially Kicking the World and White Scares Nightmare. Your music sounds exactly what everybody expected Young Modern by Silverchair to sound like: a little Diorama, a little Dissos, and BAM, your genius is the result.
Fantastic job. I really like the direction you're headed. It's a wonder why you're not more famous...
