Broadwing is the pseudonym of Alice Springs songwriter Ben Allen.

The songs begin on guitar but often veer into electronic or orchestral territories during the recording process.

In 2012 Ben was chosen as the winner of the 'Tropscore' competition after writing a score for the short film 'Returning' by australian filmmaker Amelia Olsen-Boyd.
