Emerging from the vibrancy of West London, Karl Benjamin, whose journey encapsulates that of a rising star, is showing no signs of stopping. Karl’s ability to seamlessly blend soulful melodies and captivate audiences saw the releasing debut EP D.R.I.S.T in 2021 featuring the standout track Moon, garnering millions of streams championed by the likes of BBC 1Xtra’s Nadia Jae and DJ Ace and HCPod’s Chuckie Online. His rising star and success continued from this release as Summer 2022 saw Karl support multi-platinum-selling artist Tinashe across multiple dates of her European tour. His works resulted in Karl winning both Best R&B Act & Best Newcomer at the 19th Annual Urban Music Awards, 2023, in company with the likes of Raye, Cleo Soul, Chris Brown and Dave.

His latest EP, ‘There In 5’ , both documents and demonstrates his artistry and musical kaleidoscope through previously released tracks Signals and Celebrate. He sold out his headline show at Omeara last year and has a new single called “Sycamore” out now.
