"It is remarkable that he has managed to learn much of the essence of the blues piano traditions at such a young age."
- Mark Thompson Blues Music Magazine, review of Ben’s Blues
"As soon as I heard Ben sing and play piano, in January 2018, I instantly knew “There’s one!” He’s in the “Old School” Blues club. Sure he’s an “Old Soul” and he’s “Gonna be...” but his music says he’s already there."
- Bob Margolin
"Ben Levin's got the thing! It's hard to put into words but when somebody has both the understanding and skillful execution of tradition and the joy and exuberance to make it fresh, that's the thing! Ben is already a piano master at a tender young age! I'm looking forward to watching his career blossom as a bluesman."
