Benjamin Steer

Benjamin Steer blends British, American and Belgian influences into a clear-cut pop singer-songwriter project. On 27 May 2026, he plays The Academy in Dublin, shaping a set where melodic pop, indie shades and contemporary ballads frame his voice. His writing follows the tension between desire, anxiety and the fragile edges of early adulthood, with direct hooks and vocals kept at the front.

His path began at the University of St Andrews, moving from a few covers to his first originals before sharing them online. Early tracks like Be My Love, Miracle, Sinner and No One Wants To Die Alone set the tone: intimate confession meeting accessible form, a sober production style, and lyrics that face love, doubt, loneliness and social pressure head-on.

Perfectionist by temperament, he links that drive to OCD without turning it into a narrative shortcut. The result is concise structures, clean melodies and space for the words. Between confession and pop clarity, his songs focus on writing, emotion and the grain of the voice, carried here by a minimal setup that leaves room for the melodies at The Academy in Dublin.
