Really really great but it wasn't very long. I think he only played for a little over an hour.

BEN HOWARD IN CONCERT:
Mercury Prize-nominated English singer-songwriter Ben Howard’s voice, songcraft, and intricate guitar work take the spotlight during his understated yet emotionally powerful live performances. On tour in 2013, Howard drew stellar reviews for his festival appearances at Glastonbury, Lollapalooza, and the Montreaux Jazz Festival, generating buzz for the 2014 release of his highly-anticipated sophomore album.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
“An absolutely amazing gig. Great atmosphere and spine-tingling performance from Ben Howard.”
“Incredible. I don't think any other word could be used for how amazing Ben Howard is. I had been looking forward to seeing him perform and play guitar for months and he surpassed my expectations. “
“Ben Howard is one of the few artists who is actually better live than on his album. Amazing show!”
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Ben Howard was raised in a musical household where folk music held court. Inspired by artists like Joni Mitchell, Simon & Garfunkel, and Van Morrison, Ben began playing guitar and writing his own music at an early age, penning tunes in the highly melodic, rootsy style of his folk idols. His 2011 debut LP Every Kingdom was a huge success both in the UK and the US, yielding the hit singles “Old Pine” and “The Wolves” and earning him two Brit Awards in 2013—British Breakthrough Act and British Solo Male Artist.

by IrieVibes on 9/24/12Webster Hall - New YorkBen Howard is a true artist. An artist who can perform live and still sound just as good as his album, if not better. An amazing trio of musicians. I hope he comes to the U.S. often.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Genuine artist
by Mogulz on 9/23/12Webster Hall - New YorkNothing contrived about Ben Howard. His music is from the heart. When he says "thank you" to the audience, he appears to actually mean it. Maybe it is because he is still young and unspoiled by the trappings of success and fame. This was his third New york show. He played twice in the spring plus this show Wednesday night. Mercury Lounge, Bowery Ballroom and Webster Hall - in that order. He opened the show with two new songs. They were good. The rest was the debut album. So good.

by ElseCat on 9/21/12Webster Hall - New YorkBen Howard was beyond my expectations, the venue was really cool! Bottom line; great show, amazing artist! Thanks!
Rating: 5 out of 5by Anonymous on 9/21/12Webster Hall - New York Amazing voice, great music, and the venue was perfect ! Ticket price was reasonable too :) Compared to going to a huge venue such as MSG (paying $100-$500 per ticket), this setting is such a better venue (value too $27 per ticket) intimate up close and personal, sound, and sight all engaged. I found the over all experience enjoyable. I LOVE that it is all open floor (no seats) and we could dance. Everyone was friendly ! GREAT TIME ! I like this place better than Roseland Ballroom.

by cbrittonk on 4/4/12Bowery Ballroom - NEW YORKwilly mason was a little tired, admittedly so, he just came off a flight from london where he claimed to have entertained a little crying baby the whole time. ben howard was in all honesty, one of the BEST shows i have seen in a while, and i see a lot. he was ten million times better LIVE than he is recorded which is a hard task to achieve since he's amazing in the studio if i could go to a ben howard every concert for the rest of my life, i'd do it.
