Ben Drysdale – Jansen's Jamz

Hailing from Canberra, this award-winning Australian singer and songwriter has been performing since 2004 as part of bands such as Beth N Ben and East Row Rabble. He was a semi-finalist in the 2020 International Songwriting Competition and landed 2nd place in the 2023 Hawaii Songwriting Festival competition. Inspired by the likes of Cat Stevens, he recently debuted his indie-folk solo sound.

Crafting a warm and welcoming soundscape, his debut single marries refreshing pop vibes with the invigorating earthiness of folk. He eases the listener into his musical world with a mellow beat and crisp guitar, before the track erupts in a bubbly and vivacious sonic jubilance. And with a touch of grit in his vibrant vocals, this foot-stomping, bustling tune is filled with musical joie de vivre.
