Ben Howard is an up-and-coming singer-songwriter who only released his debut album at the end of 2011.

This brought a massive degree of critical acclaim and commercial success for the exciting new musical talent.

Indeed, the release has already been certified gold - and this has been complemented by single releases, including Old Pine and The Wolves - which peaked at number 70 on the charts.

The most recent single from his album - Only Love - managed to get to number 37.

Howard was raised by musical parents who exposed him to a range of key influences from a very young age - including the likes of Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell.

On February 11th, he will be performing at Terminal 5 in New York.

Residents at the Millennium Broadway Hotel New York will be able to get to the venue in less than ten minutes if they drive or jump in a taxi.
