Ben Brock, an Oklahoma native, grew up inspired by his preacher father’s guitar skills and church performances. Although he began learning the guitar at 19, it was his older brother in St. Louis who catalyzed his music career by booking his first gig. After refining his craft in St. Louis for five years, Ben returned to Oklahoma, driven to enhance the local music scene. Today, he’s renowned for supporting emerging musicians and playing a significant role in the Oklahoma songwriter’s group, Seventh Day Rebellion (VIIDR).
Ben’s songwriting is authentic and memorable, combining relatable stories with catchy melodies. His unique voice and magnetic stage presence make his live performances unmissable. He has opened for renowned artists like Adam Hood, Jason Eady, and Stoney LaRue. In 2018, he marked a milestone with a sold-out album release at the Blue Door in Oklahoma City. His significant contributions to the music scene are evident from his regular appearances at the Bob Childer’s Gypsy Cafe show and the Mile 0 Fest.
His latest album, “Scars”, recorded with Dwight Hamlin at Classen Records, showcases his growth and dedication. Fans can anticipate a live recording session this November at the famed Blue Door, featuring tracks from “Scars” and new songs. Despite his busy schedule of gigs across several states, Ben remains committed to creating fresh music.
