Portsmouth singer-songwriter Ben Brookes recently recorded his first full-length album, The Motor Car and The Weather Balloon, with production features including Prince drummer Michael Bland, Bob Dylan keyboardist Greg Inhofer, and Badfinger’s Joey Molland. Mark Healey and Randy Anderson, also both of Badfinger renown, respectively produced and played guitar on the record. Ben captures a melodic simplicity peppered with 90s Britannia youth, lifted with a Smiths-esque groove.

Portsmouth singer-songwriter Ben Brookes recently recorded his first full-length album, The Motor Car and The Weather Balloon, with production features including Prince drummer Michael Bland, Bob Dylan keyboardist Greg Inhofer, and Badfinger’s Joey Molland. Mark Healey and Randy Anderson, also both of Badfinger renown, respectively produced and played guitar on the record. Ben captures a melodic simplicity peppered with 90s Britannia youth, lifted with a Smiths-esque groove. He’s best-regarded for his sharp hooks and indie-pop melodies, cut with dark heartfelt abandon of love and hope.
