Small Graces is Bob Bennett's sixth release.
Phil Naish recorded the tracks on Small Graces by having Bob come into the studio and record each track solo (only Bob's guitar & his vocals), along with a click track; to obtain Bob's most natural performance. Then the other players were brought in to play around that initial solo track. Small Graces was Phil Naish's mandola debut.[3]
The songs on Small Graces are split between songs that hint at relationships and romance, and those that are directed upward and outward to the body of Christ.
