More details Date and time April 17 2013, 7:30 p.m. Location Orpheum, 601 Smithe Street at Seymour Vancouver Contact 1.855.985.5000 Lauded British singer-songwriter Ben Howard will headline a performance at the Orpheum on April 17. The musician's celebrated live performances have resulted in back-to-back sell-out tours, both overseas and stateside. In the past year Howard appeared at festivals worldwide, including SXSW, Sasquatch! Music Festival, Bonnaroo and Austin City Limits. In the space of just twelve short months in 2011, Ben inked his record deal, recorded and released his beautiful debut album, Every Kingdom, and soon found his record propelling him into the UK Top 10. Since then, Every Kingdom has gone on to be Mercury Prize nominated, Ben has performed on Later... with Jools Holland, achieved platinum sales status in U.K and half a million sales worldwide. His follow up release, The Burgh Island E.P, has received a massive reception from both fans and media alike. Ben has toured relentlessly over the past two years and established himself as one of the most in demand live artists of 2012. Three sold out shows at Brixton Academy and over 50,000 tickets sold for his most recent tour are testament to this. In his most recent tours every single show sold out and yet more tours were added and upgraded. Not just in the U.K but also across Europe and America. The core UK surf scene were the first to take Ben under their wing, and were fiercely passionate about promoting him wherever they could. When it came to focusing on this debut record, Ben shirked any outside influence or label financed gloss. Every Kingdom was recorded in India's mum's barn, and is produced by drummer, Chris.
