Ben Abraham is an Australian folk singer and songwriter from Melbourne. Ben has collaborated with artists such as: Kesha, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Demi Lovato and Sara Bareilles. His song "Praying" by Kesha (which he co-wrote with Kesha and Ryan Lewis) [1] was a hit single worldwide.
Abraham's parents were both musicians who played together in the Indonesian pop group Pahama.[2] Abraham initially sought to become a screenwriter, and concurrently began songwriting while working in a hospital. In 2014, he self-released a debut album, Sirens, in Australia, which he described as "basically a roadmap of my awkward naïve insecure 20s".[3] In March 2016, the album was picked up for international distribution and reissued by Secretly Canadian.[4] The album includes the track "This Is On Me", which features American vocalist Sara Bareilles,[5] as well as appearances by fellow Australian Gotye.[6] In 2016 and 2017, Abraham also collaborated with such artists as Wafia, Ta-ku, and Wrabel on their respective singles "Heartburn", "Meet in the Middle", and "Bloodstain." Abraham's voice has been compared to Guy Garvey and Peter Gabriel.[7] CMJ's Eric Davidson calls Abraham's voice "delicate yet booming" and Sirens a "strong, electro-soul" record.[8] At the APRA Music Awards of 2018 he won the Overseas Recognition Award and was nominated for Breakthrough Songwriter of the Year.[9][10][11]
