Ben Waters is no stranger to our shores, and in fact has been playing sold out shows with us in Balnarring for many years. He is renowned for playing barnstorming sets, rockin’ the house every time, playing the music of his heroes Fats Domino, Huey Piano Smith, Albert Ammons, Ian Stewart, Jerry Lee Lewis, Amos Milburn, Chuck Berry – Rhythm & Blues to get everyone on their feet!

Ben has played with many acts over the years including The Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry, Ray Davies, Jeff Beck & so many more, and has also played sell-out shows from Ronnie Scott's to the Sydney Opera House to The Royal Albert Hall, & every kind of venue imaginable, in thousands of shows around the world.
