Mr Ben and the Bens is an indie act founded by Lancaster polymath, Ben Hall. His new album, Who Knows Jenny Jones, is an experimental pop exploration out October 25th 2019.

Ben is now based in Sheffield, where he has found inspiration for the new album. It tells the story of Jenny, a woman from Pitsmoor, Sheffield who was allegedly abducted by aliens in the early 1970s, and became the best disco dancer in town.

Sounds like a story Marc Riley tells .......
