“One-man band Ben Hall stands in a proud line of beguilingly eccentric British popcraft that runs from Syd Barrett and Kevin Ayers to Euros Childs and Gruff Rhyss… With a voice that can shift from Harvest-era Neil Young (Closing Time) to Ray Davies (Watering Can) there’s a quietly gorgeous quality to everything he touches.” Uncut – 8/10

 

“Life Drawing is focused and meticulous… The chug of The Chills is in there while Faithful Hound and Closing Time suggest Buffalo Springfield-era Neil Young.” MOJO

 

"The songs are sincere, effecting and idiosyncratic in their detail... A gorgeous album of beautiful, bittersweet songs worthy of your attention."  Narc 4 Stars****

 

"We’ve been big fans of Mr. Ben & The Bens since we first caught them in Leeds a couple of years ago. Recently we’ve been more than taken with singles Watering Can and Beast in the House’ Backseat Mafia 

 

"It’s a perfect mix of optimism and crushing reality." For The Rabbits

 

"As woodwind, brass, and twilight-hued guitars shuffle along, its apparent that Mr Ben & The Bens have a knack for making anything and everything sound delightful… even wistful swathes of melancholy." Secret Meeting
