Worship leader, songwriter, and producer Ben Cantelon has joined Provident Entertainment as Senior Director of A&R.

Cantelon has co-written songs with Chris Tomlin, Phil Wickham, Matt Redman, Maverick City, Newsboys, Kari Jobe, Cody Carnes, Matt Maher, Michael W. Smith, Passion and many more. He has released five projects as a worship artist with Survivor Records and Kingsway Music, and has also held the role of worship leader and pastor at Soul Survivor, Holy Trinity Brompton, and Worship Central in the UK.

In 2017, Cantelon and his family relocated from the UK to Nashville, where he signed a publishing deal with Capitol CMG.

“We are thrilled to have Ben join us at Provident,” says Blaine Barcus, SVP, A&R at Provident Entertainment. “His diverse background as an artist, worship leader, songwriter, and producer will be a huge benefit to our A&R team and the creatives he will serve/support. Most of all, Ben is a person who loves artists and understands their hearts.”
