A lot of bad music sells a million copies; I don’t think it’s a good litmus test for whether things are going well. Ben Lovett Read Quote
Beneath the Piano’ by The Devil Makes Three somehow reminds me of an old Johnny Cash song. The song is a lot of fun and tells a story. Ben Lovett Read Quote
Landfill’ by Daughter has calming, rich tones that are only improved upon by the gorgeous voice of Daughter. Ben Lovett Read Quote
Somebody That I Used to Know’ by Goyte has an odd, ’80s vibe to it, but that does not mean that I did not like it. Quite the opposite actually. The song is different, and slowly lured me in. The video is just as strange, but definitely enjoyable. Ben Lovett Read Quote
Communion was born out of shared frustration in 2006. We felt that although the likes of MySpace and YouTube opened up the playing field for songwriters online, people’s discovery of these new artists was only skin deep. Ben Lovett Read Quote
The energy in the banjo, and the beef in the bass. They’re good tools to express yourself. Ben Lovett Read Quote
I guess something that I’ve noticed from American acts who had success in touring is more of an explanation as to their music. Which is I think quite funny. I think British acts might like to leave more to the imagination – maybe a bit more obscure perhaps – a bit more shy. Ben Lovett Read Quote
We’re incredibly excited to be launching Communion in America, where not only are there literally thousands of excellent musicians that we want to promote, but it’s also a country full of passionate music fans that we want to feel part of the Communion experience. It’s a massive deal for us to expand, and we cannot wait to get cracking. Ben Lovett Read Quote
And my favourite new songwriter is Joe Banfi from Sheffield. He’s dark, edgy, serene and beautiful. Ben Lovett Read Quote
