Listen to the Benjamin Francis Leftwich album & win tickets to his Irish tour
I’ve been enjoying the debut album by Benjamin Francis Leftwich this morning which is apt as he kicks off his Irish tour tomorrow evening. Last Smoke Before The Snowstorm is a brisk 31 minute folk journey with Leftwich’s voice and guitar at the fore. It’s a heartfelt well-produced record adorned with understated arrangements and gentle guitar lines.
I have a pair of tickets to giveaway to any Irish show (except the 15th). Email [email protected] with your preference in the subject line and your name and number in the body. Competition closes Friday 15th at 6pm.
