About Me

Reviews:
"New Yorker Ben Sadock has given us the album we didn't know we were waiting for until we heard it with You Are The Beneficiary of Us, in which we get a return to the sound of pre-Graceland Paul Simon, Can't Buy a Thrill-era Steely Dan, leavened with a dash of Randy Newman. In other words, NYC-influenced, sophisticated 70s singer-songwriter pop that takes its cues in equal doses from The Brill Building and Motown." -ABSOLUTE POWERPOP
"Some of Sadock’s work, with his youthful almost playful voice, is very reminiscent of Matt Costa (and we love Matt Costa!)" -KICKIN' THE PEANUTS
"He's got a very nice, calm, quiet loopiness in his songs, a great sense of melody, and a great voice. And he's a sweetie." - Steve Espinola

"If I were on a lifeboat with Ben Sadock and there was only enough food for one of us I would gladly sacrifice myself that he might survive. His contribution to American music is that great." - Bobby Lightfoot

"Head shakingly great." - Dina Dean

"Danceable, marketable." - Brian's mom
