Biography

SAFIA - Ben Woolner (Vocals/Keys), Michael Bell (Drums) and Harry Sayers (Guitar/Keys) - first began transporting listeners to new worlds in 2013 with their breakout single, “Listen to Soul, Listen to Blues.” The track racked up 20 million streams on Spotify, cracked the Top 10 on the Australian Independent Singles chart, and helped garner invitations to support superstars like Lorde and Disclosure. The band followed it up with a series of similarly successful singles including "Counting Sheep" (which has now amassed over 700M streams in China) before releasing 2016 debut album, ‘Internal’ to rave reviews. The record landed at #2 ARIA chart, earned sold out international headline tours as well as arena dates with Twenty One Pilots, and grew the band into a live, radio and streaming juggernaut (over 200 million audio streams to date). Their sophomore album 'Story's Start or End' was released in 2019, followed by a sold out AUS theatre tour and blistering festival appearances at Splendour, Wildlands & Concrete & Grass (China) to name a few. Euphoric single 'Starlight' achieved Gold certification in AUS and #15 most added at US Radio (NACC). New single 'Today' was released in March 2023 and was quickly embraced by fans, particularly those who saw its live festival debut as the band headlined Enlighten Festival in their hometown of Canberra. The track followed 'Falling Down', which was triple j's #1 Most Played and featured heavily across streaming playlists.
