   About THE BENSON CAMPAIN
Fronted by Melbourne singer/ songwriter Ben Campain. This standout high vibed 3 piece produces lyrical driven tunes that are inspired by life. After a recent support slot for Australian legend Paul Kelly and a tour of the country, feel good bluesy, folk'n, hip hoppers The Benson Campain continue to wow crowds along the way. In late 2008 the act released their debut stuido EP produced by Ian Pritchett (The Beautiful Girls, Angus & Julia Stone) to much praise.

The lads have been receiving rave reviews for their live shows. Faster Louder calls them "the cities best kept secret" while Music Times states that they "explore an enormous depth and range of music, but above all they provided the audience with an incredibly captivating, and engaging performance." Getting them on the bill for festivals such as St Kilda Festival as well as packed shows around the country. Take the opportunity to be a part of a truly genuine experience and jump aboard this amazing musical campaign.
