Monty Benvis

Monty Bevins
Following on from the 7 years of constant touring that fuelled the EP 'Traveller", Monty's first 2 years as a father have defied him to delve deeply into what slowing down might uncover. Embracing change, reinventing life, and connecting to the source are themes that drive Monty's full-length debut, out this spring. With his world challenged and capacities stretched, Bevins goes about digging riches of a reflective and humbled kind, building an arc, across 10 tracks, of a moving journey into fatherhood.

Monty Bevins is a New Zealand based singer-songwriter known as a touching, spirited performer, whose soul-folk songs ask the big questions while telling the small stories. With a warm rich voice and articulate guitar grooves, Monty digs out and distills themes of
tenderness, personal revolution and adventure.

"I was pleasantly surprised with his obviously honed and crafted live performance, as he effortlessly intertwined elements of folk, roots and soul together.” Poppy Tohill, 13th floor

"There's a reason why people keep coming back again and again to see Monty perform; he’s an authentic musician with bloody good songs." James Kenyon

"An artistic gem is what I'd call Monty. Heart, soul and pure elbow grease are what go into making his song writing so special, the audience feels as though they are settling in with an old friend."
Sally Shanks, Gisborne's 'Dome Cinema' Proprietor
