Benjamin Trillado Worth


Benjamin Trillado Worth

The music of Benjamin Trillado is composed of richness and is full of vulnerability, and new single 'Worth' is no different revealing an empowering search for self-love and acceptance as a queer person through lyrics. The track's restrained production allows space for Benjamin's ethereal voice to weave through delicate guitar work and tug directly at the heartstrings.

 

 Following the release of his successful debut single 'Glue', Benjamin's music has already reached a global audience, 'Glue' attaining over 450,000 streams on Spotify, which was followed up with second single 'First Kiss' leading to Benjamin playing shows in Melbourne and Sydney during 2019. Teaming up with sound engineer Jono Steer (Angie McMahon), and Grammy-nominated mastering engineer Joe Carra, 'Worth' is his most honest track yet, an empowering search for self-love and acceptance as a queer person. 

 

After discovering Jacob Edmonds, one of the most sought after dance filmmakers on the rise on Instagram, Benjamin Trillado knew Jacob was the perfect fit to interpret and perform in the 'Worth' video. "I discovered some of Jacob's work through Instagram and instantly fell in love with his dancing and cinematography. I let Jacob pretty much have free reign in regards to the aesthetics of the video and his performance. I trusted him and wanted his interpretation from one artist to another. He moves in a way that really captures the meaning and emotion of this song. I'm so stoked with how it turned out."

 

Accepting the challenge to film, direct, perform in, and edit the 'Worth' video, Jacob Edmonds has not disappointed in delivering this stunning visual accompaniment to Benjamin Trillado's personal and musical journey.
