Rolling Stone called Ben Harper's songs 'unique and tender rock'n'roll jewellery'." while Billboard said of his music that '.reminds us of the power and beauty of simplicity". Ben Harper's blues rhythms and his ability to range from folk-rock to reggae music have made him one of the most acclaimed musicians on the world stage, giving him many platinum records achieved throughout his musical career. His latest record release is Uneven Days, a single released last July, shortly before his last dates in Italy.
