Brand: SMITH BAND, BEN

Located in: music4me, alternative, indie

* Ben Smith is one of Australia's great musical secrets. But not for much longer. This stunning collection of songs is a remarkable full-length debut from the award-winning singer/songwriter and his band. * He made the first ever clean sweep at the Australian Music Week (AMW) Awards where he won both the acoustic category and best song overall in the AMW Maton Song Contest also taking out the ABC/DIG Radio Showcase Prize. * 'Sometimes Always Never' delivers on the promises of last year's critically-acclaimed 'Whiskey Sunset' EP, which included the radio single 'Sane' * Ben's unique voice and guitar blends well with the strong, but subtle rhythm section of bass player Pat Kearney and drummer Tim O'Connor. A number of brilliant session musicians fill out the record, adding depth and emotion. *Producer Jimi Maroudas has worked with Pete Murray and the Living End.
