Music Journalist | Urban List, Melbourne
Ben Madden is a Melbourne-based music journalist and a failed leg-spin bowler. He's previously written for places like The Guardian, Esquire Australia, VICE AU, NME AU, Cool Accidents, Dog Scraps, and more. He also worked as Junkee's Music Editorial specialist in 2023 and 2024.
His latest venture is a newsletter called Spin To Win, which you can find here. It's full of his thoughts on Australian music. When he's not working, he's usually lamenting the plight of the Essendon Football Club or hanging out with his Golden Retrievers. At this point, he's wishing he had something more interesting to put in this bio.
