Ben Lee on mistakes, longevity and the power of pop music
Description
Ben Lee is responsible for some of the most ubiquitous Australian songs of the last two decades (‘Catch My Disease’, ‘We’re All In This Together’, and ‘Cigarettes Will Kill You’). His breakthrough fifth album Awake Is The New Sleep turns 20 this year, and he’s on The Music Show to reflect on career longevity (forming his first band at 14), what he’s learned from joining (and leaving) cults, and why he spends so much time playing gigs in regional Australia these days.
