The six-track collection blends previously released singles An Hour Or So and I Got a Feeling with four new recordings, forming a loose narrative that traces the emotional highs and lows of a relationship. Recorded largely live in single takes, the EP captures a raw, immediate energy that underlines Benny G’s instinctive, no-frills approach to songwriting and performance.

Speaking about the project, the 20-year-old artist described it as a journey through love and heartbreak, aiming to create a listening experience that feels intimate and immersive—like being in the room as the songs unfold.

The release arrives at a pivotal moment in Benny G’s career. This weekend, he will make his debut at the legendary Grand Ole Opry, following a personal invitation from country icon Vince Gill. The milestone performance cements his growing reputation within the country music scene.

Beyond the Opry debut, Benny G continues to build momentum on the road. He is set to join Ty Myers on The Legal Tour, while also appearing at major events including CMA Fest and a series of high-profile support slots across the United States.

Having already shared stages with a range of emerging and established acts, and following recent international appearances including shows tied to C2C Festival, Benny G’s rapid ascent shows no signs of slowing.

When You Know You Know positions him as a compelling new voice in modern country and soul—one grounded in authenticity, emotional honesty, and a clear sense of artistic identity.
