Benjamin Wetherill

folk

With the voice of a meadow-lark and a deftly-fingered guitar, Benjamin sits quietly in a dreamy shade of woodland romanticism, unperturbed. His is an enchanting, personal, peculiarly English music with an elegance and sophistication highly uncommon in today's modern musical climate, and what results is a contemporary blend of haunting folk, jazz and blues.

Celebrating pastoral traditions alongside those of pre-1950's pop, Benjamin performs a range of original and borrowed material from Formby to the bitter-sweet.

Adept at entertaining a variety of audiences across England and Ireland, via radio or onstage performance, from folk clubs to rock venues and armed with only a guitar and a little ukulele, Benjamin enchants the listener into a warm submission.
