Ben Mills

Kent based Ben Mills is a singer, songwriter and musician who shot to fame after coming third on series three of the X Factor in 2006. His success on this show resulted in a recording contract with SonyBMG and the subsequent release of his debut album, "Picture Of You", in March 2007.

Since then Ben has travelled the length and breadth of the country, appearing at a range of venues to rave reviews. His natural talent for performing live, coupled with the reputation he has for always giving time to his fans, is securing him a very strong following.

Often likened to a young Rod Stewart by the X Factor judges, Ben astounded viewers with his rendition of "Maggie May" during series three’s "Rod Stewart Week". Even Rod Stewart, himself, commented on how great Ben's voice is following his mentoring session. "Maggie May" has remained a firm favourite with audiences at Ben's live shows, where he has also performed other Rod Stewart and Faces classics such as "Hot Legs", "First Cut Is The Deepest" and "Stay With Me".

As well as performing with Simply Rod, Ben continues to pursue his career as a solo artist and, in addition to his many live appearances, has dedicated time to writing and recording material for his second album.
