Ben Pearson
has actively fuelled his passion for playing and writing music ever since the initial spark when he started on the piano at eight years old. His commitment to sharing the life-changing message of the gospel of Jesus Christ has been at the very heart of his motivation on his musical journey.

Masterplan (2006) was Ben's first release, comprising an aspiring showcase of his early material. Uncompromising lyrics and innovative production made this record standout, with its uplifting arrangements and edgy pop vibes. The Moment (2009) represented a maturing of Ben’s music both lyrically and sonically, drawing on influences from classical composers to contemporary artists. After graduating with a 1st class degree in music composition Ben released his self-produced debut album What the Eye Can’t See (2011) several songs from which received national radio airplay.

Having led worship for many years at his home church Renewal Christian Centre in Birmingham Ben moved on to become the Music Director for Teen Challenge UK - a Christian charity helping people with life-controlling addictions originally pioneered by Pastor David Wilkinson (The Cross and the Switchblade) in New York. As part of his role He led and coached a vocal group who toured churches across the UK with a presentation where team members shared their miraculous stories of hope. Ben wrote and produced two albums whilst at Teen Challenge.

Ben seeks to write worship songs that will inspire, encourage and build the local church. He is currently releasing a brand new Worship EP (2023) which is being published and distributed by Integrity Music. The project includes congregational anthems such as ‘He’s Alive’ an up-beat but theologically rich declaration articulating what the Resurrection of Christ actually means but also more reflective piano driven ballads such as Hiding Place. Ben has just released a brand new Christmas single - Hope of the World available everywhere you listen to music.
