QUOTES BY Ben Howard


I live in a small town so I get recognised a lot which is weird.

It's hard on the road, you don't get too much time to sit down and focus.

A lot of the bars are really nice to me now because they've heard me on the radio.

We've played all sorts of weird and wonderful places. You do all kinds of venues from heavy metal places in Germany to big ornate churches, and everything in between.

I'm one of those artists who doesn't really believe in fame. You can be a normal person these days, you don't need celebrity appeal.

There's force-feeding people synthesised music, then there's a skill in technically being able to play an instrument, even if that is some electronic pad.

I've never been a fan of all the R&B and vocoder stuff you hear on the radio.

We were selling out venues, not just in London but also major cities in France and Germany before labels had even noticed what we were doing.

I was never in music to make it to award shows.
