Kevin Bennett

Kevin Bennett, well-respected indigenous Singer/Songwriter with Sydney Country/Blues/ Roots band The Flood.

A 2006 Aria nominee and 7 x CMAA Gold Guitar winner, writes relevant, contemporary Australian music containing elements of Country, Blues and Rock - telling stories of where he's from and where he might be going, his past and his possible future....he sings his life. The Flood has recorded 7 universally acclaimed albums including 'The Ballad Of KB', which was named in Iain Shedden’s Top Twenty Australian Country Albums of all time, while Rhythms magazine calls The Flood ‘the best Australian Roots band since The Dingoes.’ Kevin Bennett and The Flood’s latest offering, ‘Blood Red Ties’ is concerned with family, roots, country and ALL the ties that bind. It speaks to, and is informed by, the Australian landscape and the people of this wide, brown land. KB is nominated at the Golden Guitar Awards in 2022 as co-writer of ‘Back On Country’ with Troy Cassar-Daley, which is nominated for Apra/Amcos Song Of The Year, Best Video and Single. So whether it's solo, with The Flood or Bennett, Bowtell & Urquhart, KB is still making music that needs to be heard. The Flood line-up is KB (Vox/Guitar), Jeremy Edwards (Guitar/ Vox), Wayne ‘Killer’ Kellett (Bass/Vox) and Mik McCartin (Drums/Vox).
