Benson Boone: Singer-Songwriter in New York

About Benson Boone

Benson Boone is an American singer-songwriter working in a pop-rock register shaped by direct hooks and plainspoken lyrics. He first came to wider attention during a short stint on *American Idol* in 2021, then built a following online before signing to Dan Reynolds’s Night Street Records. Early releases such as “Ghost Town” and “In the Stars” set the template for his melodic, voice-forward writing. On the Wanted Man Tour, he brings that approach to New York-area stages including Barclays Center.
