Ben Chapman has made his mark as both a songwriter and artist, with songs recorded by Muscadine Bloodline, Brent Cobb, Hayes Carll, Shelby Lynne, Flatland Cavalry, and more. A native of LaFayette, Georgia, Chapman has recently turned his focus toward his own artistry, showcasing a sound he calls “southern-funk jam country.”

His latest album, Downbeat, produced by Anderson East, captures that blend at its most confident and authentic. Beyond the studio, Chapman is the creator and host of Peach Jam, a celebrated Nashville event that has brought together artists like Lukas Nelson, Lainey Wilson, Brent Cobb, Kaitlin Butts, and the Red Clay Strays since 2022.
