Ben Howard is a chill, soulful artist from the UK who will capture and hold your attention with his live show.  His performance will reach out and stir your emotions.  I saw him open for Mumford and Sons months ago and was beyond impressed by the power he held over the audience with his very inactive one man show. His songs are featured prominently on the “low key” playlist I carry around for everyday enjoyment.  While his songs generally err on the side of mournful, he has plenty of uplifting songs about love and truth to keep his performance positive.  There’s something for everyone here.  I would highly recommend checking out his live show at 9:30 Club this January.  The first night is sold out but the second night (Jan. 26) is not yet sold out, although it certainly will.  Note that the tickets are non-transferable, so you will not be able to sell them, although you can buy multiple (up to 4) and bring in the other guests with you.  Ben appears to be making an effort to compromise the efforts of the secondary market, and I congratulate him for that.

There is currently no opener listed for this concert. Doors at 7:00. Buy Tickets Here.

Insider’s Tip:  Ben’s new album, “I Forget Where We Were,” was released on October 20, 2014 and is likely to get a lot of airtime during his shows at 9:30 Club.  New fans should not overlook his older music, as he will surely play some fan favorites such as “Only Love,” “Old Pine,” and “Keep Your Head Up.”
