Heard this gentleman on a video that friend of mine posted on facebook and couldn’t not pass it onward. Can I say something about his voice though? Here’s the elephant in the room, it sounds a whole lot like Damien Rice. Luckily I never stipulated ‘Does not sound like Damien Rice’ in my list of style prerequisites and have been able to see past it and appreciate the emotive, passionate nature of Ben’s songs which have been a stalward of my Spotify experience these past two days. Seriously though, Spotify is off the chain. When this thing becomes publicly available to the common man then you should waste no time. And yes, I did just elevate myself above the common man but if you’ve ever seen my Marvel Universe Collectable Card collection then you’ll know this as a fair distinction. Ben has a record called Every Kingdom that you can get ahold of via itunes in standard or deluxe format, or on through sanity online. Sanity are charging $26.99 per copy, which seems reasonable and explains why they are still a viable contended in the physical music marketplace.
