Event information
Artistic transformation is often associated with a blast of fanfare - the dramatic unveiling of a new look, or lofty announcement of the revelation that prompted such a change. In the case of Benjamin Francis Leftwich, reinvention transpires with significantly more subtlety on his latest album, "Some Things Break".
Fans of Leftwich's earlier work will associate him with a rich but pared-back acoustic singer-songwriter sound. Hit songs such as "Atlas Hands" and "Shine" - both from his Top 40 debut "Last Smoke Before the Snowstorm" - were infused with a charming wistfulness, and the yearning for sweet escape. Fans and critics alike were struck by this new artist's disarming honesty; his lyrics were lauded for their candidness and vulnerability.
