Perfectly fusing vintage old school cool and contemporary jazz, soul and pop energy and swagger, Ben Sharkey has enjoyed an extraordinary dual career over the past ten years. Since the charismatic vocalist posted his first raw home videos of himself singing Michael Buble and Frank Sinatra classics to YouTube in 2007, he has amassed over 5 million views worldwide for over 70 clips – including the professionally shot, James Bond themed original “What You’ve Given” (over 150,000 views alone!) The Michigan native has also become one of the Motor City’s premiere live entertainers, with hundreds of performances at big house venues such as the Fillmore, Royal Oak Music Theater, and Comerica Park, also playing at jazz hotspots like Cliff Bell’s and a five year and counting residency at the Axis Lounge at the MGM Grand Detroit.

Sharkey is also an alumni of the College for Creative Studies in Detroit, where he received a BFA in Fine Arts. Graduating in 2006, He began developing his skills as a visual artist and painter as well. His work in oils based pop surrealism/pop contemporary art has been widely praised locally, and, among other events, he had a sold out showing at N’namdi Center for Contemporary Art showcasing an exhibit of nine 6’ x 4’ paintings of people’s faces he called “Dollface.” Sharkey is currently working towards another solo exhibition of his Invisible Gent series.

Signed to Woodward Avenue Records, Mr. Sharkey is set to release his second album Mercury Rising in the summer of 2018.
