Tonbridge-based singer/songwriter Ben Sales has established himself locally, and having played at the Forum supporting a Local band called 'The Riders' and attending open mic nights, he has received positive feedback from his live performances. Ben delivers a style, which is both edgy and expressive with thought provoking lyrics and engaging melodies.
He learned the guitar from a young age and has been writing songs from the age of 14. His songs reflect on his experiences of life so far, from being a teenager, the break up of his parents and the problems that people are faced with everyday. His influences include Matchbox Twenty, Goo Goo Dolls, The Killers, Feeder, Stereophonics, Snow Patrol, Muse and Radiohead.
