December 2005 - CD Review, MELBOURNE

"Touching...beautiful...captivating.
Discover one of Melbourne's musical gems."

Melbourne singer/songwriter Ben Mitchell is one of those rare gems so often scattered throughout this fair city of ours. Usually playing in small, dimly-lit, smoke filled clubs, bars and hotels, he's the kind of guy that if you're lucky enough to catch him will make you stop what you're doing and take in the moment.

After considerable time spent travelling abroad, Ben had decided to focus his attention towards his music and if 'The Stars Can See' is anything to go by -
it's a good move.

His songs flow between gentle and uplifting, melancholy and heartfelt, blues based grooves to smooth low-key numbers. Best tracks range from the touching GO NOW through the beautiful SUPERSEEDED and the smooth KITTY KAT to the captivating COULD NOT LOVE YOU MORE. Hunt him down and discover one of Melbourne's musical gems.
