Benny J Ward / SUPER! LP Black Vinyl

Benny J Ward 'SUPER!' LP Black Vinyl

After years of honing his craft in beloved bands like the powerpop-driven Rinehearts and the high-energy LEECHES!, Benny J Ward steps into the spotlight with Super!, his self-recorded and self-performed debut album. Brimming with poptastic charm and irresistibly catchy tunes, Super! is a joyous ride from start to finish—bursting with jangly guitars, glittering hooks, and pure melodic magic.
Drawing from a rich palette of influences—from '60s garage rock and The Kinks to Elvis Costello and classic guitar pop—Benny has carved out a sound uniquely his own. Tracks like the sugar-sweet “Ice Cream Headache” (featuring Link Meanie and Nici Ward on vocals) and the anthemic “Tell Me Tell Me” show off his knack for earworms that linger long after the music stops.
Having spent over two decades touring Australia and abroad, Benny distills his observations and energy into this vibrant debut. The album balances thoughtful songwriting with an easygoing spontaneity that makes it endlessly replayable.
Joining forces with Melbourne’s Psych Ward (featuring Matt Cotter, Davey Lane, and Link Meanie) and Perth’s Thee Teleprompters (Matt Are and Jose!), the live show captures the raw spirit of the record, turning each performance into a celebration.
Super! is not just an album—it’s a good time pressed to wax.
