About this act
More than 25 years in the music industry, and not just on stage: producing, songwriting, recording, touring globally and developing other artists along the way. Alexis Benedict brings all of that experience to acoustic sets that cross eras and genres, from Dolly Parton's Jolene and Creedence through Oasis and Eskimo Joe to current hits like Flowers. Each cover gets an original feel rather than a straight copy. Benedict has played events and pubs across Melbourne and Queensland, connects with all age groups, and is happy to take specific song requests ahead of an event. Punctual, professional, and clearly still in love with the work.
