Fans worldwide fell head over heels for Ben Platt during his Tony® Award-winning turn in the title role of Dear Evan Hansen and on-screen in films such as the Pitch Perfect franchise. As the vocalist, actor, and performer sang life into a host of nuanced and 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.
Ben achieved superstar status as Evan Hansen in Dear Evan Hansen, originating the lead role. The New York Times lauded him as a “breakout star,” and 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 of “You Will Be Found” on The Today Show, and more. Not to mention, he joined forces with Hamilton mastermind Lin-Manuel Miranda to craft a mash-up of “The Story of Tonight” and “You Will Be Found,” benefiting the “March for Our Lives” anti-gun violence movement.
Signed to Atlantic Records by Chairman and C.E.O. Craig Kallman and President of A&R Pete Ganbarg, he explored his formative influences, ranging from timeless 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, which was primarily produced by Jenn Decilveo, chronicles the highs and lows of a transformative relationship. Showcasing his story, Ben 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.

@jilly Cacho Season 2 is coming mid-june on Netflix. Season 3 will be the last and the creator said that he intend to wait several years before filming it, because he want Ben Platt to grow up so he would look old enough to run for president.

I fell in love with River during Episode 1 and this song cemented my love for him. It's so rare to connect and feel for a character so quickly but I did. Ben sings this song with the same love that David Corenswet/River looks at Ben/Payton with, a love I hope one day I will feel. Also, it sounds so nice to hear little, new bits that aren't from the series version.

[@vale9277]

[@natalialosadagowan5265]

Me too. I fell in love with River in the first episode and I was so devastated when he died, he was my favourite character. The rest of the series has cemented that position. And Ben´s performance was amazing. I´m so sad they killed him, he could have been such a great second main character

Joni Mitchell wrote this great song “River” in 1971. On her album “Blue”. She is a great songwriter. Great rendition. The original inspires many including Platt.

[@brandonburrell8517]

Indeed. Two great artists.

[@mjamestillson]

Absolutely! She is far and away one of our best songwriters of all time. The poetry of her lyrics combined with her voice and presence have inspired generations of musicians and still do. Check out the performance of her & Brandi Carlyle (and others) at a recent festival - or any of so many others from her over the years so luckily easy to find on KZbin or elsewhere. I totally love Ben Pratt! He does a fantastic job, too. 😉🙏
