 Kevin Borich Express
Kevin Borich was born in 1948 in Huapai (near Auckland) in New
Zealand. In 1961, at the age of 12, Borich recorded a private
single on Astor Records, and formed a group called The Mergers two
years later.The Mergers eventually became The La De
Da's, and Borich
made a name for himself as a guitarist with the group in the late
1960s. He has been part of the Australian music scene ever since.
Disbanding The La De Da's in 1975, he formed Kevin
Borich Express - usually a three-piece band, but an outfit which
boasted numerous different drummers and bassists between 1976 and
1982.
Winner of innumerable "Best Guitarist" polls,
Borich played such a scorching set at the 1977 Rockarena concert
that Carlos Santana (also on the bill) invited him onstage to
participate in the Santana encore.
In 2001 Borich was diagnosed with cancer and spent several
years enduring chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
