Ben Phipps

Ben Phipps is roaring into 2022 with a slew of releases on the schedule and a rediscovered love for making music. “I’m so fucking fired up”, Ben says – as he should be. His latest release, ‘On My Own’, has already earned over a million streams.

Straddling genres from indie dance to pop and deep house, Ben is quickly carving out a name from his adopted Southern California home. A fresh approach combined with musical hunger helped his hit single ‘I Don't Think So’ pick up more than 25 million streams on Spotify alone.

But don’t let the music fool you. Ben’s as much of a businessman as a musician – evidenced by his success to date without any major label input. Ben has turned down more than one major label record deal, and he releases his music through his own label: 14 & 9 Records.

By focusing on lyrics of substance and blending them with trademark productions – think bouncing basslines at around 110bpm mixed with smooth melodic vocals and a marimba here and there – Ben has created his own sound, and the world is starting to take notice.

Ben’s signed with industry powerhouse CAA and collected over 40 million streams on Spotify – as well as tens of millions on Apple Music, Deezer, and YouTube. He’s charted on Spotify in more than 20 countries, landed national US airplay on SiriusXM, and enjoyed extensive media placements – in Netflix’s ‘You’, ‘Pretty Little Liars’, and ‘Animal Kingdom’, as well as in global ads for Google, Disney, and more.

Though Ben writes “maybe when we’re older, we’ll get our shit together”, it sure seems like he already has his. We’re just waiting to see, hear and feel what’s coming next.
