Benson Boone isn’t just the guy behind “Beautiful Things”—he’s an artist pushing his boundaries, both musically and personally. The 22-year-old singer-songwriter, who catapulted to stardom with last year’s most-streamed track, is gearing up for his next chapter with American Heart, an album set to drop this spring or summer. Inspired by rock legends like Bruce Springsteen, Boone’s new music promises a mix of Americana vibes and high-energy anthems that match his electrifying stage presence.
Despite his rising fame, Boone remains grounded, shaped by his Mormon upbringing and a deep sense of self-awareness. While he acknowledges the pressures of being a heartthrob, he wants his artistry—not his looks—to define his legacy. With influences ranging from One Direction to Nirvana, and even a life-changing opening slot on Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, Boone is embracing his journey on his own terms. As he readies for his next big release, one thing is clear: Benson Boone is more than just a viral sensation—he’s a star with staying power.
The article describes the life and career of singer-songwriter Benson Boone. Boone discusses his journey from a young boy singing covers to becoming a pop star with his hit song "Beautiful Things." He also talks about his influences, including Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber, and his desire to be seen as more than just a pop star.
Listen to his new single on Apple Music, where you can explore the latest sounds and vibes that showcase his unique style and artistry.
“I don’t want to be the same as Harry Styles,” he tells Rolling Stone, “and the same as Freddie Mercury, and the same as Justin Bieber, and the same as One Direction, like, because it’s not me. I’m Benson Boone! I’m completely different.”
