Bio
.. .. ...... .. ..Ben Arnold has been playing some of the most soulful sounds in and around Philadelphia for the last 15 years. His lyrics bring to mind early John Hiatt, Mose Allison and Lowell George. People say he sings a bit like Randy Newman or Joe Cocker, but embeds a hook like Springsteen used to do in the '80s. His more recent songs explore strong emotions while the music draws on blues, gospel, folk-rock and a few other genres in between. He has written and co-produced many of his own six-plus major label and independent releases as well as with other projects 4 Way Street, US Rails and Pistol For Ringo. A long time WXPN favorite, he has appeared twice on The World Cafe, Free At Noon and Mountain Stage as well as numerous live appearances around the region, the West Coast and Europe. He has shared a stage with everyone from Ryan Adams, David Gray, Ben Folds and Lucinda Williams to Ron Sexsmith, Randy Newman and even a strangely magical week in Holland with Townes Van Zandt. .. ..........Get this FREE MySpace layout and more at ..MySpaceOrYours.net...... .. -
