- We had the pleasure of interviewing Ben Barnes over Zoom video!
BARNES celebrated his 40th birthday in a big way by giving his fans the one gift that they’ve been waiting years… His debut EP is finally out!
After years of being directed, written for and edited in movies and television, this is his moment to shine the light on the five songs on Songs For You, lovingly crafted at his piano at home and presented unedited and straight from the heart.
“11:11” is a track that could not be contained to one genre. The soul-pop vocal soars over a jazzy piano, sacred-feeling organ, Queen-inspired guitars and a bursting “Penny Lane” piccolo trumpet fanfare.
With the ‘70s-style, rich, entirely organic instrumentation of all the tracks on Songs For You-produced by John Alagia (Paul Simon, Dave Matthews, John Mayer, Herbie Hancock) and Jesse Siebenberg (Ke$ha, Miranda Lambert, Neil Young, Kenny Loggins, Michael McDonald)-BARNES is baring his soul through his music for the first time; hopeful, joyful, passionate, nostalgic, vulnerable and loving.
For the past months, since before the pandemic started, BARNES has been filming himself in his Los Angeles home at his piano performing his favorite songs, including a stirring rendition of the Friends theme in honor of the HBO Max reunion special, which has prompted his 2.5 million social media followers to wonder and plead when he’s finally releasing music of his own.

Ben's Barnes is not aging or he's aging so gracefully.
Gracefully isn’t the word. He’s getting hotter.
Dorian Gray :V
Ben does not live his life on the surface like most people in the industry do. I feel that from him.
Agreed :) Ben is awesome! Thank you so much for watching the interview Sarah!
I just stumbled upon this interview. Such a refreshing half hour spent in good company!
Questions where great and I loved Ben's thoughtful and extensive answers.
I wish him all the best in the world! The passion he has for his work, whether it's music or acting, is truly inspiring and you just know he's gonna deliver the best performance he can.
It'd be so cool to see him in a musical production.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you so much for this wonderful interview with Ben Barnes! The format was so nice, it allowed room to breathe in between the questions, to allow him to really open up and let his personality shine. I feel bad that he seemed sick during the interview but he still kept up with you ☺️ He brings up covering Daniel Caesar’s song “Best Part” which Ben just released with Stories! Fantastic interview! I hope you get to interview him again sometime 🖤
Thank YOU so much Jessica! We appreciate the kinds words 🙏. We would love to have Ben back on the show! He's amazing!
Thoroughly enjoyed this interview. BB is always so interesting. He’s a great conversationalist. I would love to sit and talk over coffee or tea. Ben always has great stories, I’d love to hear more :)

thank you Steph!!
Love the interview, and the fact that the interviewer lets him speak, and not cut in. It's always so interesting to hear about the background, family and growing up. Those are most interesting to hear, of how a person has developed and what-who contributed to it.
Thank you so much for watching the interview, TJ!! So glad you enjoyed it and thank you so much for the kinds words!!! Means the world!
15 days in Canada. I had to do 21 days in Hong Kong. With no open windows.
yikes!
Love this guy
same! Thanks for checking out the interview Ju St!!
Thank you so much for this wonderful interview and good learning from him. As my childhood crush, he had great talent and my life is so similar to him. Wish him the greatest success with all kind of his talent. I'm bit stuck with his look, really looks like his dad. Graet genes..😁😍😋
I'm glad you enjoyed the interview and could resonate with his journey! If you haven't already, consider subscribing to our channel for more insightful interviews and content.
It's interesting that you mentioned your life being similar to his. Are there specific aspects of his journey or talent that particularly resonate with your own experiences?
Thank you for this great channel. Actually I think his life story gave me a greater inspiration. Though I'm a nursing graduate, there's a huge artist behind my character and I expelled my true passion,talent since my childhood for dancing, singing, songwriting & acting . But our country situation, culture made us be more educated and have a high salary jobs. Then my passion followed me like my shadow behind me. Sometimes I regret my career choices but definitely I'll be an artist in future. Currently I'm doing those things in little way.
27:56 I love Ben’s little correction when he remembers he’s talking to an American
“Football stickers!” *oh wait, they’ll think I mean that other sport…* “Soccer stickers!”
hahaha! totally
i wasn't familiar with ben barnes before watching shadow & bone, but was struck by his performance! so i naturally did a deep wikipedia dive into his career, and that's brought me here. to learn that he's been a musician all his life, and that he didn't release his music until recently is super encouraging and honestly comforting. and i love that for him ~ i believe in divine timing. these things happen when they are meant to.
how he says "you know exactly who you are... you're proud of what you've made... the reaction is unbelievably secondary" is something i'm gonna take with me, forever! really grateful for his perspective here. great interview 💖
Thanks so much for your insightful comment and for taking the time to watch the interview with Ben Barnes! It's encouraging to see how his journey resonates with viewers like you. If you haven't subscribed to our channel already, we'd be grateful if you'd consider doing so to stay tuned for more interviews. Since you appreciated hearing about Ben's musical journey, who would you love to see us interview next about their musical side projects?
What Disney Prince should he be?
Charming? 🤴
@@BringinitBackwards I was leaning more towards Flynn Ryder?
@@spicycatsandthings HAHA! It's funny you say that because that was my initial answer but changed it! haha
you interviewed the darkling ;-; and prince caspian!
legend 🔥
Ben is so fine. Does he have a gf or married? Thanks for posting interviews with him!
That part of his life has mostly been kept private. He’s not married but dating someone no one knows. If he is it’s kept very private and very low key.
Hahahaha ... Talk to me about where were you born and raised... Not awkward at all. 🙃
This was a lovely interview, thank you so much @benbarnesmusic and @bringinitbackwards
As always, I love how Ben talks about music and life in general in such an honest and thoughtful way. 💜
