Singer-Songwriter Ben Bedford
With a sturdy voice and enviable guitar skills Ben Bedford delivers highly literate, intriguing sketches of America, its individuals, their victories and their struggles. Poignant, but never sentimental, Bedfords portrait-like songs capture the vitality of his characters and draw the listener deep into the narratives. With five albums to his credit, Bedfords songs tackle scenarios including homelessness, the plight of a Confederate soldiers wife during the American Civil War, the aerial triumphs of Amelia Earhart, the life of Jack London, the murder of Emmett Till in 1955, John the Baptist, the poet Vachel Lindsay and even the 1973 standoff between members of The American Indian Movement and federal agents on the Pine Ridge Reservation. Often drawing upon history, Bedfords songs have a strong sense of time and place. The songs are rich in sensory detail which allows the listener to hear, see and feel each narrative.
