Benjamin Francis Leftwich (Born September 4, 1989) is an English singer-songwriter from York. Leftwich began playing music at the age of ten and grew up listening to The Rolling Stones and Nina Simone before discovering such singer-songwriters as Nick Drake, Bob Dylan, and Elliott Smith.
The background music stopped and a version of ‘Heroes’ by David Bowie started to come through the PA. Benjamin Francis Leftwich walked on in darkness. He was followed by a solitary musician and it was clear we were in for some pure and unadulterated versions of songs from his back catalogue.
Benjamin Francis Leftwich the quiet guy softly playing guitar in the corner of a party not really caring whether anyone is listening or not is one of them.
It always seems like the sound-guys have such a hard time getting the levels right, resulting any noise the first band make being entirely lost to anyone standing in the back half of the room.
For one thing unless he’s carrying a set of synths and lists his influences as Kate Bush and Roxy Music he ain’t getting on too many Radio 1 playlists any time soon.
