The delicate acoustics and honest lyrics of Benjamin Francis Leftwich are causing more than a few ears to prick up around the music world at the moment.

Following acclaim for his two previous EPs (check our post on the Pictures EP here), the buzz is set to heighten with the release of the beautifully poetic and melancholy new single Box Of Stones – out on the 5th June.

He will also be performing at a host of forthcoming festivals including Camden Crawl, Dot-To-Dot, Bestival, Boardmasters, Green Man and Glastonbury, along with announcing a new headline UK tour in June.

Debut album, Last Smoke Before The Snow Storm‚  is set for release on the 20th June and is available to pre-order now. The first 1,000 pre-orders from HMV coming in an exclusive signed slip case.

Watch and listen to Box Of Stones below.
