Ben Smith is 20 years old and lives in Newcastle. I am a singer, songwriter and guitarist. I am currently studying a Music degree majoring in Performance at Newcastle University.
As a singer songwriter I have recorded a number of songs and currently have two of my original pieces released on all streaming platforms “Let Me Go” and “Wishin’ I Could”. I have many more originals in store to be recorded and released.

I love playing my music at pubs, festivals and restaurants. From originals to covers, from Rock to Pop music there is something for everyone.
The highlight of my performing career so far has been singing in Star Struck at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre to 7000 people. As well as being a part of Heathers the Musical in 2022 and being the lead role “Corey Palmer Jr” in Back to the 80’s the musical 2023.
