"YOU'LL WANT TO SAY YOU SAW THEM NOW" Village Voice, NYC
"For anyone worrying that the Americana genre has become a repository of the bad irony of hipsters and has-been quacks, fear not: Romantica is here to save the day. Singer/songwriter Ben Kyle is the latest in a long line of European exports to reinvigorate a genre by reclaiming it as his own—“God walks on the water, I walk through the rain,” he sings. With one foot still in his home country, and one taking a tentative step into the mess of promises and disappointments on the other side of the pond, Kyle and his bandmates dust off the brilliance at the heart of America. Most albums with such ambitious titles fall ?at in their attempt; Kyle—in songs and voice that sit comfortably between Jeff Tweedy and Ryan Adams—dwells comfortably in the long shadows cast by his forefathers while leaving his own undeniable stamp on the proceedings." David Mead, PASTE Magazine

Listen now: "For Banjo Lisa" live at Banjo Jim’s w/Eliza Blue and Fiona McBain
Gang,
I just added this song to my profile. It was recorded live (10/25/08) at Banjo Jim's in NYC on a crappy cassette recorder I use to tape interviews. I switched it on during the gig, and I'm glad I did. I love this song, written that day, and all the people involved. Hope you dig it.
(Thanks to Eclectone's Scott Legere for cleaning up the hiss and making it listenable)
so that drunk woman in the elevator...she was getting back on the elevator when i was getting off. she literally grabbed my coat and tried to get me to go to her room...
