Ben Cutler

Belfast native Ben Cutler has shed his old sound and reinvented himself with a healthy dose of bluesy rock.
FFO: Blackberry Smoke | The Black Keys | The Rolling Stones

The latest single sets down a marker for Ben’s future aspirations and his new sound. The vocals are as strong & distinctive as ever but the track is notable for the guitar playing. Ben cuts loose and drives the song forward with a rip roaring riff that will stick in the memory. It touches on the feeling of uncertainty that comes with taking a risk to pursue your dream. Each track on the ‘Break the Ice’ EP, conveys a different message. Ranging from the challenges and struggles of finding yourself, to the pain & anger of rejection before concluding on a more hopeful & resilient note. There is a conversational feel to Ben’s lyrical style that leave the particular subject matter open to interpretation but crucially, instantly relatable to everyone’s own daily struggles and experiences.

“One of the best local songs I’ve heard in a long time, this man has got some skill and also knows how to work a distortion pedal!” – Paul Kennedy (Cool FM)

“If soaring choruses and big hitting pop songs are your thing, then Ben Cutler is the artist missing from your playlist” – Taylor Johnson (Across the Line, BBC Radio Ulster)
