Bio

Ben Sands lives in Newry, Ireland, close to the mountains of Mourne and the Irish Sea.
He sings songs and plays tunes - mostly his own. His songs are about life and love and the ways of the world. Some are whimsical, some are sad and some are very humorous indeed.
He plays a few instruments - guitar, banjo, mandolin, whistles, keyboards and occasionally fiddle.
Like those of brothers Tommy and Colum, Ben’s songs and tunes are finding their way into many repertoires and recording studios.

Press

“Ben Sands is good at all the things we expect from a Folk Club guest - a skilled singer and instrumentalist, with a soft Irish lilt ... At the end of the night the audience left smiling and that doesn’t happen by chance, the performer has to work at it, and Ben does. ”
—  Joe Phillips, Bingham Folk Club
