I'm a singer/songwriter who recently moved from the Sunshine Coast to Melbourne. I write and play songs inspired by a unique combination of the great rock bands and the great folk artists of the last half of the twentieth century.
Ben McMaster is a 25 year old Australian singer/songwriter. While enrolled in a performing arts course, Ben discovered a talent for song writing and sought out keyboard, guitar and vocal lessons, and so began his journey. He recorded a demo that led to five more demos sent to various record labels. He has since graduated from FreeZACentral's Mentoring Program, played gigs at a wide variety of festivals and venues and has just released his first EP, That Was Close, available now on iTunes and selected online music stores.
