BEN OTTEWELL - A Man Apart LP
$43.95
Includes download code.
Orange vinyl, exclusive Australian edition.
Ben Ottewell’s solo career has rarely strayed far from the campus-friendly, blues-informed folk-rock that rocketed Gomez to fame in the 1990s, and his third LP does not buck the trend. These world-weary songs are occasionally syrupy (“Walking On Air”) though his capacity for urgent, incisive songwriting does emerge on “Own It” and “Lead Me”.
