Watt began recording in 1981 on the indie label Cherry Red. His first single 'Cant' was produced by folk-maverick Kevin Coyne and featured Richard Allen on viola and tambourine. His second release, 1982's 5-track EP Summer into Winter featured Robert Wyatt on backing vocals and piano.{{cite web|title=Ben Watt with Robert Wyatt – Summer into Winter|url=http://www.discogs.com/Ben-Watt-Summer-Into-Winter/release/970741|website=Discogs|date=2 April 1982 }} His debut album North Marine Drive was released in 1983 and reached UK Independent Album Charts Top 10. He then put his solo career on hold and joined forces with vocalist Tracey Thorn, with whom he wrote and recorded for 17 years—together they created nine studio albums as Everything but the Girl (EBTG) after signing to Blanco Y Negro through Warners in 1984, and then Virgin in 1995. EBTG have received eight gold, and one platinum album BPI Certifications in the UK, and one gold album RIAA Certification in the US.{{cite web|title=Everything But The Girl Awards|url=http://www.mfyi.com/e/everythingbutthegirlawards.html|website=mfyi.com|access-date=2 October 2014}} The song Missing reached number two on the US Billboard Hot 100 in 1996.

Following EBTG's self-imposed hiatus in 2000, Watt immersed himself in the world of underground electronic music both as a DJ and recording artist/producer. His recorded output during this period includes club tracks such as Lone Cat (Holding On), A Stronger Man featuring Sananda Maitreya (formerly known as Terence Trent D'Arby), the Outspoken EP Part 1 including Pop A Cap in Yo' Ass featuring Estelle, Just a Blip and Guinea Pig.{{cite web|title=Ben Watt Discography at Discogs|url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/19004-Ben-Watt|website=Discogs|access-date=27 September 2014}}

In 2014 Watt returned to his folk-jazz roots and released Hendra, his first solo album since 1983, the content of which was recorded with a new band including Bernard Butler, formerly of the band Suede—Watt explained that he knew that Butler would be the "perfect counterpoint to bring some darkness to the light."{{cite web|title=WATCH: Ben Watt & Bernard Butler – Hendra|url=http://thequietus.com/articles/14542-ben-watt-hendra-bernard-butler-tour|work=The Quietus|access-date=18 April 2014|author=Laurie Tuffrey|date=19 February 2014}} Watt also worked with Berlin-based producer Ewan Pearson, and David Gilmour of Pink Floyd.

In late 2022, Watt and Thorn announced a new Everything But The Girl album. {{cite web|url=https://consequence.net/2023/01/everything-but-the-girl-fuse-nothing-left-to-lose/|title=Everything But the Girl Announce Comeback Album Fuse, Share "Nothing Left to Lose": Stream|website=Consequence|last=Jones|first=Abby|date=10 January 2023|access-date=11 January 2023}} Fuse, released in April 2023, was the first EBTG album released in 24 years.

Watt's first memoir, Patient – The True Story of a Rare Illness (Penguin, 1996), describes his life-changing ordeal with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis, a rare life-threatening autoimmune disease with which he was diagnosed and hospitalized in 1992, on the eve of a North American tour with Everything But The Girl. "An astonishingly assured anatomy of his ordeal, by turns terrifying, mordantly funny and intensely moving. Many people suffer the pain and indignities of intensive medical treatment; but few have written about it with quite such alarming vividness or clarity", wrote Mick Bown in The Daily Telegraph.{{cite web |title=Patient – The True Story of a Rare Illness |url=https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/patient-9781408846599/ |website=Bloomsbury Publishing |access-date=16 December 2017}} The book was listed as a New York Times Notable Book of the Year, a Sunday Times Book of the Year chosen by William Boyd and a Village Voice Literary Supplement Favorite Book of the Year, and was also a finalist for the Esquire-Waterstones Best Non-Fiction Award in the UK.{{cite web |title=Bloomsbury – Ben Watt |url=http://www.bloomsbury.com/author/ben-watt |website=Bloomsbury Publishing |access-date=22 September 2014}}

In 1998 Watt established the London deep house Sunday club night and compilation series Lazy Dog with Jay Hannan. The club night – where both Watt and Hannan DJ'd in a tag-team style – was hosted twice-monthly at the Notting Hill Arts Club in west London, and later every two months at The End in central London. Success led to appearances at the Miami Winter Music Conference and several tours of the United States.{{cite web|title=Lazy Dog|url=https://www.popmatters.com/lazy-dog-2496083881.html|website=Pop Matters|date=23 February 2002}} Watt produced a string of dance remixes for Sade, Sunshine Anderson, Zero 7, Maxwell, Meshell Ndegeocello and Sandy Rivera. Lazy Dog ended on 16 May 2003 with a farewell closing party at The End in central London. Two mix compilations – Lazy Dog Vol. 1{{cite web|title=Various – Lazy Dog Vol 1|url=http://www.discogs.com/Various-Lazy-Dog/release/681526|website=Discogs|date=17 October 2000 }} and Lazy Dog Vol. 2{{cite web|title=Various – Lazy Dog Vol 2|url=http://www.discogs.com/Various-Lazy-Dog-Volume-2/release/59970|website=Discogs|access-date=22 September 2014}} were released by Virgin Records in 2000 and 2001 respectively.

For three years between 2002 and 2005, Watt was a co-owner/founder of the West London nightclubs Neighbourhood and Cherry Jam.{{cite web|title=Mega Watt|url=https://www.standard.co.uk/showbiz/mega-watt-7235824.html|website=www.standard.co.uk|date=11 April 2012|access-date=2 October 2014}} Under Watt's creative direction Cherry Jam hosted underground club nights, art exhibitions, the inaugural events for the long-running spoken word night Book Slam{{cite web|title=Book Slam {{!}} London's best literary night club|url=http://www.bookslam.com|website=www.bookslam.com|access-date=2 October 2014}} and The Libertines' official debut show.{{cite web|title=The Libertines: Cherry Jam review|url=http://www.rockfeedback.com/magazine/detail/the-libertines-the-beatings-london-cherry-jam-21-02-02|website=www.rockfeedback.com}}{{cite web|title=NME Reviews|url=http://www.nme.com/reviews/6142|website=www.nme.com|date=12 September 2005|access-date=2 October 2014}} At Neighbourhood, Watt brought in artists such as Groove Armada and many international DJs to perform at his own in-house club nights.

In April 2003, Watt launched his own independent deep house and techno record label Buzzin' Fly Records (named after the Tim Buckley song). The label proceeded to foster the careers of young and emerging producers/DJs such as Justin Martin,{{cite web|title=Justin Martin – The Water Song [Buzzin' Fly, 2006]|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o53zqrgTS6c |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211219/o53zqrgTS6c |archive-date=2021-12-19 |url-status=live|work=YouTube|publisher=Google, Inc|access-date=21 May 2013|author=DeepDownUR2|format=Audio upload|date=15 September 2011}}{{cbignore}} Mademoiselle Caro & Franck Garcia,{{cite web|title=A Fond Farewell: Buzzin' Fly|url=http://www.clashmusic.com/features/a-fond-farewell-buzzin-fly|work=Clash|access-date=21 May 2013|author=Robin Murray|date=24 April 2013}} and Rodamaal.{{cite web|title=Rodamaal/Lephtee – Buzzin' Fly Volume III – The Special Remixes EP|url=http://www.residentadvisor.net/review-view.aspx?id=3911|work=Resident Advisor|publisher=Resident Advisor Ltd|access-date=21 May 2013|author=Mohson Iqbal|date=31 July 2006}} The label hosted Watt's own club productions as well as work from remixers such as Ame, Radio Slave, Charles Webster and John Tejada. Between 2003 and 2007 Watt also compiled and mixed four compilation albums, Buzzin' Fly Volumes 1–4, mixing tracks from the label with tracks from other artists.

Buzzin' Fly won Best Breakthrough Label at the House Music Awards in 2004, and was awarded the Runner-up Best British Label by the DJ Magazine Awards in both 2007 and 2008.{{cite web|title=Spotify Playlist: Buzzin' Fly Records Special From Ben Watt|url=http://thequietus.com/articles/03841-everything-but-the-girl-ben-watt-spotify-playlist|work=The Quietus|publisher=TheQuietus.com|access-date=21 May 2013|date=5 March 2010}} In April 2013, on the label's tenth anniversary, Watt announced he was scaling back the label's activities to focus more fully on his own creative work.{{cite web|title=All Good Things ...|url=http://www.buzzinfly.com/article.php?a=all-good-things-...|website=Buzzin' Fly Records|access-date=22 September 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141012083847/http://www.buzzinfly.com/article.php?a=all-good-things-...|archive-date=12 October 2014}}

After a period of relative inactivity in 2017 Buzzin' Fly took control of the majority of the Everything But The Girl back catalogue, previously held by Warner Music. The transfer of rights was the result of Warner Music's obligation to release assets into the independent sector as part of the conditions surrounding its acquisition of EMI assets from Universal Music. A licensing deal with Chrysalis Records was simultaneously arranged for the shared curation of the catalogue.{{cite web|title=Everything But The Girl reclaim Warner albums, ally with Chrysalis|url=http://www.completemusicupdate.com/article/everything-but-the-girl-reclaim-warner-albums-ally-with-chrysalis/|website=Complete Music Update|access-date=16 December 2017}} A new Buzzin' Fly website was launched the same year presenting a new home for all three labels within the Buzzin' Fly group – Buzzin' Fly, Strange Feeling and Unmade Road.{{cite web|title=Buzzin' Fly|url=http://www.buzzinfly.com|website=Buzzin' Fly|access-date=16 December 2017}}

Building upon the foundation of Buzzin' Fly, Watt launched Strange Feeling Records in 2007 as a sister label that would release alternative/indie music. The critically acclaimed Copenhagen band Figurines and the Hungarian trio The Unbending Trees were early signings of Strange Feeling. The label globally released and distributed the third solo album Love and Its Opposite by Watt's wife Tracey Thorn on 17 May 2010; the album was the label's fifth release.{{cite web |last=Roby |first=Wendy |title=Tracey Thorn : Love and Its Opposite : Review |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/music/reviews/d8zb |publisher=BBC Music |access-date=21 May 2013 |date=11 May 2010}} This was followed by her alternative Christmas album, Tinsel and Lights, in 2012.{{cite web |last=Petridis |first=Alexis |title=Tracey Thorn: Tinsel and Lights – review |url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2012/oct/25/tracey-thorn-tinsel-and-lights-review |website=The Guardian|date=25 October 2012 }} 2015 saw the release of Thorn's original soundtrack to The Falling – the debut feature film by British film director Carol Morley.

In 1992, Watt was diagnosed with Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), an extremely rare and potentially deadly autoimmune condition.{{cite news |last=Whiting |first=Sam |name-list-style=vanc |title=Everything But the Final Song / Ben Watt lives to tell how he almost didn't |url=http://www.sfgate.com/entertainment/article/Everything-But-the-Final-Song-Ben-Watt-lives-to-2845684.php |access-date=30 June 2013 |newspaper=SFGate |date=10 April 1997}} He eventually had 5 m (15 ft) of necrotized small intestine removed (about 75%), leaving him on a permanently restricted diet.
