Ben Bedford „Portraits“

Ben Bedford kommt aus Illionis und hat sich dort als Songwriter in die Tradition von Grüßen von Bill Morrissey bis Woody Guthrie eingereiht. Er ist ein wirklicher Sohn des traditionellen Amerika und hat sich tief in der klassische US-Literatur eingearbeitet. Und so schreibt er als Songwriter wie seine literarische Idole John Steinbeck und Toni Morrison.

2010 wurde Bedford durch den legendären Chicagoer DJ Rich Warren unter die 50 wichtigsten Folksong-Schreiber der letzten 50 Jahre gewählt. In der Liste Namen wir Bob Dylan, Townes Van Zandt, Anais Mitchell und John Prine.

2018 gewann Ben Bedford die wichtige Kerrville New Folk Competition. Damit steht er in der Reihe von Größen wie Robert Earl Keen, James McMurtry, Diana Jones, Anais Mitchell, Danny Schmidt, Jonathan Byrd, John Gorka und Pierce Pettis.
