Kevin Borich Express is and Australian rock band formed in 1976 by New Zealand born Kevin Borich with Borich on lead guitar, lead vocals and occasional flute with Harry Brus on bass guitar (ex-Blackfeather) and Barry Harvey on drums (Wild Cherries, Chain).[1][2] They recorded a track, "The End of Me" before Brus and Harvey were soon replaced by Reuben San Fiansco on bass guitar and Gil Matthews on drums.[3][2] Subsequent line-ups were typically a three piece with a succession of bass guitarist and drummers.[1] They released their debut single, "Goin' Somewhere" in October using Fiansco, and John Annas on drums (Wendy Saddington Band), following in March 1977 was their debut album, Celebration! with Annas, and Tim Partridge on bass guitar (Mighty Kong, The Johnny Rocco Band).[3][2] The album was favoured by critics and peaked in the top 30 on the Australian albums charts.[1][4]
In early 1977, Borich supported the tour by UK rock guitarist, Jeff Beck. Mid 1977 saw the release of the band's follow-up album Lonely One. This was followed in October by supporting the Rockarena tour with Fleetwood Mac, Santana and Little River Band – Borich was invited on-stage to jam with Carlos Santana.[1] In May 1978, the band toured USA in support of Australian heavy rockers, AC/DC, with Annas, Paul Christie on bass guitar and keyboard player Tim Shafer (Gary Wright Band).[1]This line-up recorded, No Turning Back which was released in March 1979.
By mid-year, Partridge had returned with both Christie and Shafer departing, and together with Annas, Borich recorded Live!,[1] using the 2JJ mobile studio equipment over performances in Melbourne and Wollongong. Live! contains one of the most incendiary and atmospheric versions of Little Red Rooster ever recorded along with a number of Borich standards.
A European tour by Kevin Borich Express resulted in a compilation album being released in Germany.[1] After the tour, John Watson (Heavy Division) replaced Annas on drums and the band recorded, Angel's Hand in November 1979.[1] Similar line-up changes continued into the early 1980s with Michael Deep replacing Partridge in April 1980. This line-up collaborated with solo artist Dutch Tilders to record Blues Had a Baby and They Called It Rock'n'Roll in 1981 on RCA Records.[1][2] Kerry Jacobsen (Dragon) replaced Watson on drums for Shy Boys Shy Girls mini-LP in late 1981. By mid-1982, Annas returned on drums, with Steve Balbi on bass guitar, and Andy Cowan on keyboards.
Later that year, Borich joined The Party Boys on guitar and consequently, Kevin Borich Express output and touring was reduced during the 1980s.[1] In 1989, Borich left The Party Boys and appeared in Jimmy Barnes band for the 1990 Two Fires tour before re-launcing Kevin Borich Express performing in Australian and international events utilises a spectrum of Australia's best musicians at different times including long time friend Harry Brus on Bass and his son Lucius Borich on Drums with other line-ups featuring John Annas returning on drums with Ian Lees on bass guitar (ex-Moving Pictures), and with two former member John Watson with South Australias Chris Finnen and Frank Lang joining at Adelaide shows. Since late 2015 Borich the line-up features Jon Carson on drums and Chris Gilbert on bass guitar[5] He released, Live at the Big Kahuna in 1995.[1] A studio album was released in 1998, Heart Starter, with Lucius BorichofCOG on drums and Ben Rosen on bass guitar touring to promote it while in 2012 Kevin Borich, Harry Brus and Lucius Borich recorded and released Live at the Basement a double CD & DVD under the banner Borich X Borich . [6]
Borich recorded and released studio album Totem in 2015 which he currently tours in Australia with his current Kevin Borich Express line-up featuring Chris Gilbert on bass guitar and Jon Carson on drums.[7]
