Platt’s much-anticipated second solo album, “Reverie,” includes such extraordinary new singles as “Happy To Be Sad” and “Imagine,” both available now on all digital platforms. Produced by Michael Pollack (Justin Bieber, Katy Perry) and Zach Skelton (Jonas Brothers, Paul McCartney) with additional production from Grammy® Award-nominee Gian Stone (Maroon 5, Dua Lipa), "Happy To Be Sad" was met with applause from  Billboardwhich raved, "On 'Happy To Be Sad,' the singer beautifully illustrates the portrait of a lover having to leave his significant other for a while, and simply reveling in the sadness as a source of pure joy. It is a confusing emotion to describe until you hear Platt's cherubic vocals sing the words—then it feels like it is happening to you right at this moment." "Happy To Be Sad" is joined by an official companion visualizer, streaming here.

"Imagine" arrived earlier this summer and has fast proven one of Platt's biggest singles to date. Produced by The Monsters & Strangerz and Jon Bellion, the superstar team behind such hits as Maroon 5's "Memories," Justin Bieber's "Holy," and "Prisoner" by Miley Cyrus feat. Dua Lipa and co-written by Platt with Bellion, Michael Pollack, Alexander Izquierdo, Jordan K. Johnson, and Stefan Johnson, the track now boasts over 20M worldwide streams and counting. Hailed by Rolling Stone as “tender and confident . . . a tribute to everyday saviors," "Imagine" reached number seven on iTunes' "Top Pop Songs," to the "30 Hot AC Hit" list, and the top 50 on Spotify's "U.S. Viral 50" while also lighting up Hot AC radio outlets nationwide. An official music video, directed by Matty Peacock (Billie Eilish, Shawn Mendes, Selena Gomez), is now streaming via YouTube here.

Platt followed “Imagine” with a series of creative reworks including the stripped-down “Imagine” (acoustic) (available here) and the mesmerizing “Imagine” (Tiësto Remix) an unprecedented collaboration with Grammy® Award-winning, platinum-certified, international icon Tiësto (streaming here and an official visualizer streaming here).

Platt recently unveiled a spectacular cover of Lady Gaga’s classic “Yoü And I,” featured on her newly-released “Born This Way The Tenth Anniversary” celebration album also known as “Born This Way: Reimagined.” The track earned rave reviews from such major outlets as Billboard, which wrote, “Ben Platt is the one artist here with the Broadway vocal chops to match Gaga— but instead of aping Gaga’s rock ‘n’ roll swagger, he brings out the tenderness . . . Love songs are the bread and butter of pop music, but the truth is, it’s hard to be this sincere and vulnerable, to sing with no armor at all. Ben Platt makes it feel utterly natural.” An official music video is streaming now here.

“Imagine” represented the first new music from Platt since 2019’s “So Will I,” (streaming here). Produced by multiple Grammy® Award-winner Finneas (Billie Eilish, Halsey, Camila Cabello) and applauded by Rolling Stone as moving, inspiring . . . a powerful new ballad,” “So Will I” is featured on the deluxe edition of Platt’s acclaimed debut album, “Sing to Me Instead.” The expanded collection also includes live material recorded during Platt’s sold-out 2018 headline show at New York City’s legendary Radio City Music Hall, filmed for the concert special, ”Ben Platt Live From Radio City Music Hall,” which streamed exclusively on Netflix.

Sing to Me Instead proved a full-fledged sensation upon its March 2019 release, amassing over 337M global streams and earning applause from fans and critics alike. A genuinely multi-faceted actor, singer and all-around performer, the album saw Platt making a remarkable arrival as a solo recording artist and a songwriter, co-writing all of the album's 12 songs. Highlights include “Bad Habit,” “Ease My Mind,” “Grow As We Go,” and “Temporary Love,” all of which are joined by official music videos (streaming here).
