Benjamin Folke Thomas
●

Originally from Gothenburg, Sweden but now based in London, Benjamin Folke Thomas is an interesting proposition. Still in his early twenties, he has the world and whisky-weary voice of someone twice his age: a cross between a heartbroken Irish folk wastrel and The Boss. You can download his new single ‘Thoroughly alone’ here. He plays The Lexington on January 31st, followed by ‘Betsey’s Winterlude’ at the Conway Hall, Holborn, February 19th.
