Introducing Isak Benjamin
Meet Isak Benjamin, a 20-year-old singer-songwriter who is making waves in the music scene with his debut single, «Tailored by Design». With a musical lineage that includes his sisters Johanna and Klara from the renowned band First Aid Kit, Isak’s passion for music has been a lifelong journey. His upcoming debut EP, expected to drop in 2025, showcases his unique sound and dedication to the craft.
Crafting «Tailored by Design»
Isak’s first single is not just another launch into the music industry; it is a heartfelt exploration of personal struggles and growth. Co-written with the talented Ben Cramer, who has collaborated with artists such as Orville Peck and Noah Cyrus, the song delves into themes of adapting oneself for another without expecting anything in return. Isak describes it as a journey of creating a facade, aiming to draw someone in while feeling a lack of reciprocity. This deeply personal touch gives listeners an insight into Isak’s artistry.
What Lies Ahead for Isak
Although «Tailored by Design» marks the beginning of Isak’s solo career, he is far from inexperienced. Having performed in front of large audiences, including a memorable gig at the Avicii Arena, Isak is no stranger to the stage. This fall, he will tour with Maja Francis on the «Hello Cowboy» tour, performing at key venues such as Pustervik and Cirkus. With a strikingly well-crafted debut EP on the horizon and an unwavering dedication to his music, Isak Benjamin is surely an artist to watch.
