Bio:
Stella Rose Bennett, better known as BENEE, came into the world on January 30, 2000, in Auckland's Grey Lynn neighborhood, where the city's eclectic hum and a family full of Radiohead records and Björk vibes shaped her early days. She swapped water polo dreams for guitar strings at 17, dropping her first track "Tough Guy" as Bene in 2017, but it was "Soaked" in 2018 that soaked up double-platinum love back home. By 2019, her EP Fire on Marzz lit the fuse, with "Glitter" and "Supalonely" (teamed with Gus Dapperton) exploding on TikTok, turning lockdown blues into a global sing-along that peaked at number 39 on the Hot 100. Her debut album Hey u, x followed in 2020, all dreamy confessions and Kiwi cool, while 2023's Lychee EP brought bolder edges with tracks like "Green Honda." Now, heading into late 2025, she's teasing Ur an Angel I’m Just Particles, set for November 7 on Republic, fresh off a reworked "You Get What You Give" collab with New Radicals for the VMAs promo that has fans buzzing about her effortless pop glow. BENEE's sound—part beachy haze, part sharp heartbreak—feels like those quiet Auckland nights that stretch into something bigger, a reminder that even in the loneliest hooks, there's room to connect and keep floating.
