Benny Walker

A Yorta Yorta man from Echuca Benny Walker
is the real deal and a star in the making.

 

Michael Dwyer The Age “Walker’s voice has the drag and timbre of a natural soul man …his music is pure blues-rock, buoyed by clean, lyrical guitar solos and the throb of electric organ.

Jeff Jenkins The Music “Ghost oozes class. Sophisticated and soulful, it’s another step on Benny Walker’s road to superstardom.”

Bernard Zuel SMH- A year ago Benny Walker showed potential. Now he’s the real deal, a soul singer as ready to sing about the world as about the heart, in a rich song that sounds old-before-its-time yet anything but old-fashioned.


Yorta Yorta singer/songwriter Benny Walker is the real deal. He's got the lot; the voice, the songs, the showmanship and the looks to kill. His love songs and epic tales are mixed with passion for people, the land, summer vibes and deep grooves that reach the soul. Said to possess one of the best voices in Australia, Benny Walker never fails to take you on a emotionally driven sonic journey.
