Ben de la Cours visceral songwriting grabs you by the heart and doesnt let go. Weaving evocative stories of desperate characters with his signature Americanoir sound, de la Cour shines a raw, empathetic, and at times bleak light on the human condition. After receiving praise from American Songwriter, Twangville, The Telegraph and NPR for his 2023 release Sweet Anhedonia, de la Cour returns with his heart-wrenching sixth album, New Roses. The album marks a sonic evolution into stranger, heavier, synth-inspired territory that builds into a collection of what de la Cour describes as night songs. This shift adds new layers to his delicately fingerpicked story songs, creating something that is at once soaring and beautiful, hammering and claustrophobic, yet ultimately hopeful and resilient.A friend took me to see Ben de la Cour at a little hole-in-the-wall in Nashville. It didnt take long to realize I was in the presence of greatness. He has much to say, and knows how to say it as only a true poet can. You owe it to yourself to check him out. He is important. You need this bright young talent now more than ever. We all need Ben de la Cour – Lucinda Williams
