Benjamin Joseph Ottewell, born on June 23, 1976, is an English singer-songwriter known for his deep, raspy voice. He gained prominence as one of the lead singers of the English indie rock band Gomez, which received the Mercury Music Award Prize in 1998. Ottewell's distinctive, gravelly baritone voice has drawn comparisons to artists like Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam and Tom Waits.
In 2011, Ottewell embarked on a solo project, releasing his debut album, "Shapes & Shadows." His solo work, while not a radical departure from Gomez, features a more low-key and acoustic-driven sound, exploring themes of love and relationships with maturity.
Ottewell's second solo album, "Rattlebag," saw him collaborating with Sam Genders, a former member of the English folk band Tunng. The album was crafted with a focus on riffs as foundational elements and was recorded in Los Angeles, showcasing Ottewell's passion for music and songwriting.
Born in Chesterfield and raised in Bonsall, Derbyshire, Ottewell now resides in Brighton, East Sussex. He is a married father of twin boys and one girl, adding a personal touch to his music and songwriting.
