Ben Sage is pretty much a throwback to the days when songwriters weren't pigeon-holed into rigid radio formats. He matches the style and genre of music to the mood of the lyrics and melody of each individual song. This CD showcases some of Ben's best work in Country, Rock, Folk, R&B and Gospel. Whether he's singing about jobs, relationships, love, lust, redemption or bowling, his unique powers of observation shine through. The recordings on this CD have a "live" feel, because Ben doesn't bother with a lot of aural ornamentation. For him, any given take either has it or it doesn't. The cuts on "In Word and In Deed" have it. Give it a spin. You'll find it's the genuine article -- in word and in deed! And look for Ben's new CD, "Troubadour," soon. Ben plays predominantly the Chicago area and southern Wisconsin. For bookings call toll-free 800-295-8173. ©2004 Ben Sage. All rights reserved. All Songs BMI.
