Ben Bedford - Portraits

Portraits is a specially for UK and Europe curated retrospective collection of songs from my first three albums: Lincoln's Man - Land of the Shadows - What We Lost. I'm calling this collection simply, Portraits, as each of these tracks is, in one way or the other, a kind of portrait. Some are people. Some are places. Some are events. Some are memories. I have attempted to craft vignettes that engage the senses. With a small dose of the suspension of disbelief, I want to take you on a journey with each of these songs, these portraits.
