Johnny Bennett is one of those rare, but highly sought after artists - the breed of singer/songwriter who has lifetime experience and wisdom that literally gushes into the meaning and sentiment of every song he writes. Having previously held residency in San Francisco, New York and currently Los Angeles, Johnny Bennett is well equipped to draw on varied walks of life, adding a precious depth and quality to his work. Most of Johnny’s skill and raw approach to songwriting came from working as a street performer in Los Angeles. These years of ‘working it out’ lead to opportunities to work and learn from some amazing songwriters and producers including Chris Julian, Jeff O’Rourke, Peter Foldy, Ali Nikou and Sean Dever. From aggressive gripping rock tracks such as, World on Fire, through to the mellow drift-away tones of, Sailboat, this album delivers indulgent diversity by the bucket load. In late 2009, Johnny, Duane and a very talented set of musicians made the trip to London, England to record the follow-up to The Violet Hush titled Gone Missing. Recording in England was this dreamlike experience for Bennett and has delivered his second in his series of timeless classic rock influenced releases. For the last year Johnny has been pushing for Gone Missing’s release. This is a dark album with elements of indie rock, soul, and sparsely produced numbers that suit Bennett’s voice and style.
