Ben Goldsmith To Share ‘The Start Of Something Beautiful’ In September

/by

Ben Goldsmith will share his new album, The Start Of Something Beautiful, on Sept. 13.

The Free Flight Records artist developed the collection with Dan Wilson, Rick Nowels and Alex Hope, among others. Spanning coming-of-age themes of heartbreak, first love and more, The Start Of Something Beautiful credits the 18-year-old as a writer on every track and producer on nearly half of the project. Goldsmith also plays guitar, piano, lap steel, organ, mellotron and bass throughout the album. Two of its 11 songs, “When I Said Goodbye” and “Love Again,” are available now.

“Over the past year, I’ve been traveling to many new places and meeting new people that have challenged me and inspired my art, both in L.A. and my new home in Nashville,” he says. “My primary goal for this album was to write the best songs I possibly could and cover new musical ground. The lyrics explore feelings of growing pains, heartbreak, hope and a desire to prove myself because I took a less traveled path.”

Additionally, Goldsmith will hit the road this summer with Australian trio Sons Of The East in addition to select headlining dates across the country.
