Plan B Releases New Single

• 23rd Jul 2010

The third single to be taken from the already platinum-selling album ‘The Defamation Of Strickland Banks’ ‘Prayin’ is Plan B aka Ben Drew in full testifying soul preacher mode, delivering a sharply double-edged song that works perfectly as both uplifting gospel-driven Northern soul anthem and starkly bleak prison yard lament.

The new video is the latest visual instalment of his fictional Strickland Banks stardom-to-Solitary saga, directed in cinematic style, as are all his videos, by Daniel Wolf. Beautifully filmic, Ben gets to show off his acting talents as well as the obvious music ones.

With the October tour close to selling out (more dates have been added since – see below for full tour) the album resident in the top 10 album chart and a live show that is going to strength to strength, Plan B is at the tipping point to end as the breakthrough artist of 2010.
