Special Guest Performance

Winner of Scottish Live Artist of the Year 2024 and shortlisted for Live Act of the Year 2025, Ben Walker is an indie-rock singer-songwriter from Montrose, rapidly establishing himself as one of Scotland’s most exciting independent artists.

Known for emotionally charged songwriting, big hooks and high-energy live performances, Ben has built a loyal following through relentless gigging, self-funded releases and a genuine connection with his audience.

2026 is already proving to be a landmark year, with Ben selling out his headline show at Glasgow’s Garage, releasing his debut EP Where I Wanna Be, and continuing to build momentum across live, radio and social platforms.

Alongside his solo work, Ben has also reached new audiences through his FOFB collaboration, with 60 Clicks gaining traction via the GBX remix and major live appearances at P&J Live, the OVO Hydro, MacMoray Festival, and a headline slot at Devon Truck Show.

He now heads into a packed summer festival season, including main stage performances at Heartlands, Doonfest, Summers End Festival and more.
