Ben Arthur

Artist Description

"Ben Arthur's got the looks and hooks of John Mayer."  - Rolling Stone

"If Ben Harper and Joseph Arthur made a baby, it would sound like Ben Arthur (and look like Bea Arthur, but that's another review). The funny thing is--well, not ha-ha funny, but you know--the Virginia native could easily steal away those other singer-songwriters' fans with his third and latest release. It's a charming, yearning disc packed with lilting acoustic guitars and lavish melodies, just the kind of thing Harper would make if he didn't really care about getting his songs on the radio. But when Arthur dumps his guts out on songs like "Mary Ann" and "Broken Hearted Smile," backing them with vibrant pop sensibilities and subtle electronic effects, it's clear he's got something bigger in his sights: John Mayer's album sales."
