This Tunes Tuesday is all about Ben Howard. Though his album came out in late 2011, Every Kingdom is really just beginning to gain some momentum in Howard's home country; England. So far the album has held a peak position at number 6 on the UK album charts and there are a few singles that have popped up on UK radio stations, but the album has not shown up on the US charts. However, Howard launched his album in America this past April, and even made an appearance at the June 2012 Bonnaroo Music Festival in Tennessee, so it's safe to say that he's on his way!

The album starts off beautifully, with a really pretty sound, and only continues on to get better and better. I will admit, it took a couple of listens to completely fall in love with the album, but it was definitely worth the wait. The album is soft for the most part, definitely easy listening, and perfect for a summer drive. Every Kingdom is available on iTunes, and below is one of his songs 'Keep Your Head Up', which is definitely my favorite on the album if I had to choose just one!
