Never
a fan of change for the sake of it, Mr Bennett still does what he
always did; "I write songs then I sing em"... An often heard remark
that paints a good enough picture of a minimalist mutineer. For over
twenty five years he's been taking his stand and deliver performance to
audiences all over the world. Simple melodies and hard won lyrics have
earned loyal fans and kept Mr B in constant comparison with Lou Reed,
Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan. though Bennett cites his main influences
as Mississippi John Hurt, JJ Cale and Reverend Gary Davis. ..."
