'Overwhelmingly confident, seemingly effortless playing that makes you believe that all is well with the world. Ben weaves his fluent, fluid magic through tracks from Shetland to Satchmo, Gaelic to Irish. A treat for lovers of expert execution.' |

| Ben is accompanied on Spindrift by harpist Debra Carey and Nick Turner on piano. The album features one of Ben's original compositions 'The Gray Girls' - a wonderful cascade of frenzied notes inspired by the family of a close friend and their 3 girls. 'A hugely talented Scottish guitarist and someone who knows his way around the fretboard. Edom's got the feel and skill rolling across the dynamic range of the guitar and accentuates with some punchy stuff at the thumb end with some jaw-dropping bends and pull-offs. It's an astonishing, exciting piece of work, full of jazzy improvisations and touches of funk, which he invests with audible emotion. Edom comes across as a warm and sincere personality who carries a genuine love of this music and a deeply held belief in it's ability to lift the human spirit.' ...
