To celebrate the album release, Ben has released the lead single “Runaway Souls” featuring Elles Bailey. The single is accompanied by an official music video that can be viewed on YouTube HERE.
“They killed this one. Runaway Souls is my favourite track on the album.” – Rock The Joint
“Runaway Souls is a blistering track and a fine example of the highly regarded blues guitarist’s evolving sound, reaching further heights thanks to Elles Bailey’s guest vocals.” – R’N’R Magazine“Runaway Souls is a superb track that epitomises Elles Bailey, with a stunning guitar solo from Poole, and thunderous drumming.” – Fireworks Magazine
Pushing boldly beyond familiar blues-rock territory, Ben unveils a richer, more atmospheric sound, where late-night grooves, subtle rock dynamics, and sky-bright hooks collide with effortless confidence. Expressive, cinematic, and instantly memorable, the track draws the listener deep into the world of Post-Midnight Behaviour without ever losing its cool, understated power.
“I wanted Post-Midnight Behaviour to capture how far I’ve come as a guitarist, singer, and songwriter,” says Poole. “After years of playing more than 150 shows annually across over 20 countries, everything has grown — my guitar style, technique, and voice, and how I hear music. The album is the sound of all those experiences coming together. It moves through Blues, Rock, Soul, Country, and Alternative Rock, but with a darker, late-night energy running through it. I still get to unleash the guitar, but this time it sits inside something more atmospheric and reflective, and more emotionally charged. That after-hours mood inspired the album title.”
“Ben has worked relentlessly building his reputation as a top blues rock guitarist, counting Jeff Beck and Gary Moore among those that acknowledged his ability." – Blues Matters
“Maybe the biggest takeaway from Post-Midnight Behaviour is that is sounds like a songwriter’s record made by a great guitarist.” – The Rockpit“Post-Midnight Behaviour is wrapped in lush soundscapes, cinematic in places.” – Blues in Britain
“There are subtle traces of John Mayer’s artistry at work throughout the album… the blistering guitar is still there, but it’s embedded in songs that cover a broad stylistic range.” – Guitarist Magazine
“In recent years I’ve released a few live albums, which are great snapshots of a specific moment in time,” adds Poole. “With this new album, I took my time to make sure every detail was fully realised — the songs, the sounds, the arrangements, the performances, everything. My writing team and I pushed ourselves harder than ever, digging deep to make the songwriting as strong, sharp, and emotionally powerful as it could be. Listeners are going to feel that energy the moment they hear it. It has been well worth the wait.”
British guitarist and singer songwriter, Ben Poole, is pleased to announce the release of his new album Post-Midnight Behaviour. The album is released worldwide by Gypsy Soul Records and is available on CD and vinyl HERE, and digital HERE.
