Bens Brother
Since the release of debut album ‘Beta Male Fairytales’ in 2007, the London - born singer songwriter has barely had time to catch breath. With critically received hit singles already under his belt, - ‘Rise’, ‘Let Me Out’ and the huge US hit ‘Kiss Me Again (Stuttering)’ – Jamie Hartman’s heartfelt vocal and lyrical delivery led to his prestigious Ivor Novello nomination last year and highlighted his undoubted talent as a credible songwriter.
Now, having deciding to go it alone, Ben’s Brother’s new album ‘Battling Giants’ is set for release through Jamie’s own label Flat Cap Records on 11th May and will feature Joss Stone (Stalemate) and Jason Mraz (Battling Giants). The first single from the new album will be ‘Apologise’ and was co-written by Natalie Imbruglia.
Following an album showcase gig at London’s Borderline on 21st April, Ben’s Brother will head out on a full UK tour in May to debut the new tracks from ‘Battling Giants’ alongside crowd favourites from ‘Beta Male Fairytales’.
