Today, acclaimed singer-songwriter Alec Benjamin has unveiled his newest song “Must Have Been The Wind,” available now at all DSPs and streaming services.
Since the release of his critically-acclaimed debut mixtape NARRATED FOR YOU back in November, Alec Benjamin’s star has continued to rise without any signs of slowing down. Most recently, the mixtape’s chart-climbing lead single “Let Me Down Slowly” featuring Alessia Cara saw Alec land his first UK Top 40.
Alec recently announced his first-ever Caught In The Middle World Tour. The massive tour kicks off on August 16th in Tokyo and includes a sold out show at London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire on November 26th. An extra London date at Electric Ballroom has been added on November 27th due to popular demand.

Last month, Alec brought out his idol and friend John Mayer to a packed crowd that went wild. The two performed Alec’s fan-favorite song “Death Of A Hero” (watch HERE) and then John’s classic “Slow Dancing in a Burning Room” during night 1 of Alec’s two back-to-back sold-out shows at LA’s El Rey Theatre which bookended his second sold-out nationwide US headline Outrunning Karma Tour. Mayer, who also had Alec as a guest on his Instagram show, is calling him “a young jedi”.
The rising artist – who has racked up over 650 million global streams – kicked off 2019 with his US television debut on The Late Late Show with James Corden. Alec’s Spotify Singles are also now available and feature stripped renditions of “Let Me Down Slowly” as well as his fan-favorite, emotionally gripping cover of Eminem’s “Stan”.
NARRATED FOR YOU, Benjamin’s extraordinary debut mixtape has received praise from fans and critics alike. Alec’s compelling companion visuals for mixtape tracks “Let Me Down Slowly,” “If We Have Each Other,” and “Boy In The Bubble” have amassed over 36 million collective views on YouTube. In addition to love from fans and critics, Benjamin has begun to garner support from other musicians, including Billie Eilish, Bryson Tiller, Kevin Abstract and more.
