*  * *  long live Benny B! and the ants...

“Ben BLanchard began his set in an unusual way- in Spanish. "Que Triste Amor (This Sad Love) is both melancholy and uplifting in a way few can muster. His strong voice melds so well with his singular guitar that you can barely tell where one ends and the other begins. Blanchard has distinctive vocalization, moving from deep and low to higher, sweeter tones. His impressive range allows for many different sounds, which he explores thoroughly with each new song. Songs such as "In the Puddle" have a country/bluegrass sound, but couple with more "ballad" type lyrics to create an entirely new entity. His voice is melodious, his guitar playing deft and dexterous. Blanchard's sound could never hope to be duplicated, but will most certainly be emulated."
