Benjamin Francis Leftwich

Benjamin Francis Leftwich crosses the Pennines from York for the night's studio session.

Benjamin Francis Leftwich crosses the Pennines from York to join Marc in the Salford studio tonight.

With his debut LP Last Smoke Before The Snow Storm released on the Dirty Hits label back in July, and receiving much praise, Ben has been busy playing solo shows all over the country. A change is a comin' though as he is now with a full band as of this current tour, which is taking in Europe and the UK this January and February.

With promise of new material this year, and heading over the pond to the US, it looks like Mr Leftwich is starting the year off well!
