Folk! 2025 Tour… Come see us live in concert in a city near you!
Benjamin Williams Hastings, a Northern Irish songwriter, singer, and worship leader, was raised in Belfast. Benjamin spent many years in Sydney Australia where he met Hillsong UNITED. Thanks to their friendship and through numerous collaborations, recordings, and tours, Benjamin has been part of many of their biggest songs, such as writing and leading vocals on UNITED’s “So Will I (100 Billion X).” He also penned Cory Asbury’s No. 1 song “The Father’s House,” Brandon Lake’s “Gratitude,” and Hillsong Worship’s “O Praise The Name (Anástasis).” Yes, he’s written a whole lot of songs which, if you add them all together, have been streamed over 500 million times (not quite a 100 billion, but it’s on the way!).
Recently, Benjamin and his family of five (including their dog) moved to Los Angeles, CA. His new self-titled offering is 25 songs that explore, as he shares, “all the sides of me” - family, love, the ongoing wrestle of exercising faith, the struggles with fear and doubt, war, finding God, fighting God, and fighting for God in the midst of everything.
