Snagged a leak of this online (due out Aug 19, I believe). Really digging it. Anybody caught his live show?

RIYL: Strokes, CCR, Royal Fingerbowl, The Dirtbombs


"ATO is excited to announce the signing of Benjamin Booker, a young New Orleans based singer-songwriter. Described as “a well-mixed musical cocktail of punk, folk, and New Orleans blues”, Booker cites his influences as The Gun Club, Blind Willie Johnson, and T. Rex. Benjamin’s self-titled debut album, produced by Andrija Tokic (Alabama Shakes, Hurray For The Riff Raff) will be released August 19, 2014 on ATO (USA) / Rough Trade (Europe)"

I didn't hear any Gun Club, Strokes, T.Rex, punk, CCR, nor Dirtbombs. Heard some decent roots music, and some potential, but nothing that stopped me from deleting it.

Any further thoughts, now that you've had it for a couple of weeks?
