Tickets are now available for BEN RODRIGUES at The Grace!
Hailing from the busy streets of Durban, raised in the quaint coastal town of St. Francis Bay, and now thriving in Cape Town, Ben Rodrigues is rewriting the story of South Africa’s independent music scene. From the moment he picked up a guitar at age 10, music became more than a passion—it was his destiny. “It’s not a matter of if I make it, but when,” Ben confidently proclaims, a statement that echoes in every step of his journey.
Ben’s breakout single, Was It Real, took not only South Africa but the world by storm and catapulted him into the spotlight, earning over 20 million streams across platforms and solidifying his status as South Africa’s top pop artist. The song claimed the #1 spot on the South African Radio Charts for three consecutive weeks, amassed thousands of radio spins worldwide, and helped him build a social media following of over 500,000 fans. Following this success, his debut sold-out headline tour swept across the country, cementing him as a homegrown star with international appeal.
Drawing inspiration from the nostalgic pop-rock sounds of One Direction, Justin Bieber, and Shawn Mendes, the 8 year overnight sensation is bringing back the Pop-Star Era. With 2024 proving that there is no limit for how far Ben can go, he sets his sights on 2025 where one thing is clear… This is just the beginning.
