Ben Inman was born in North Yorkshire in 1993 and his musical ability was clear to his parents from an early age: he could sing in tune even before he could talk.
In 2005, following a nationwide search by talent scouts from Universal Music, Ben was selected, along with two choristers from Ely Cathedral, to become The Choirboys – a new treble 'boy band'. Their album – a mix of classic cathedral repertoire and more popular, crossover tracks – was released in December of that year and went gold in just four days, becoming the fastest-selling classical début album ever.
Throughout all this, Ben remained a faithful member of Southwell Minster Choir and in June 2006 was promoted to Head Chorister, a position of some responsibility.
In January 2007, after 5½ years as a chorister, the time came for Ben to retire from the Minster Choir and to rest his now changing voice. His departure from the choir brought praise for Ben's achievements as a treble, some of the most effusive being from his choirmaster, Paul Hale.
Although not performing publicly as a singer at present, Ben continues to study with international soprano soloist Nicky Kennedy. His voice is currently somewhere in the tenor/baritone range.
