ABOUT THE SHOW
Fans worldwide fell head over heels for BEN PLATT during his Tony® Award-winning turn in "Dear Evan Hansen" and films such as the "Pitch Perfect" franchise.
As the vocalist, actor, and performer sang life into a host of fascinating characters, audiences embraced his voice wholeheartedly.
By dusting off the piano, picking up a pen, and singing his own truth straight from the heart, he shared another side of himself as a solo artist.
PLATT achieved superstar status as "Evan Hansen" in "Dear Evan Hansen," originating the lead role.
He went on to receive the 2017 Tony® Award for “Best Actor in a Musical.”
Other honors included “Best Musical Theater Album” at the 2018 GRAMMY® Awards for the Original Broadway Cast Recording of "Dear Evan Hansen," Outstanding Musical Performance in a Daytime Program at the Daytime EMMY® Awards for a cast performance on "The Today Show" and more.
Signed to Atlantic Records, BEN PLATT explored his formative influences, ranging from singer-songwriters such as Joni Mitchell and Carole King to legendary crooners like Donny Hathaway, Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder.
As a result, the music delivers confessional lyricism by way of soulful intimacy as part of one cohesive narrative on his 2019 full-length debut, "Sing To Me Instead."
The 12-track album chronicles the highs and lows of a transformative relationship.
BEN PLATT penned several songs solo and co-wrote the remainder of material alongside the likes of Ben Abraham, Eg White, Nate Cyphert, Michael Pollack and more.
