Gideon Bensen is a singer songwriter from Sydney. His Indie/Folk sound is reminiscent of the late sixties/early seventies with a delightful, and occasionally jaded, contemporary spin.  He tells stories through his ballads that linger long after the song has finished.

I was lucky enough to catch him playing a set at Cosy Band Night ‘08, and bully him into a short interview afterwards.  Gideon has even been generous enough to supply us with his track “The 8th Day” for you listen to!
