So if you could go back in a time machine “Back to the Future” style to 1979 and see INXS rehearse, perform at your own Xmas party, go on a private jet with the band, witness a film clip getting made, go to an INXS after-party in the Hollywood Hills, meet Robert Plant, go on the KICK tour in the USA and stay at Chris Murphy’s place....... well that’s the life of our latest guest David “Clemo” Clement. With the famous lyric “you spend the whole day with your axe to the wheel” in Calling all Natio...

Join us as we celebrate all things Australia particularly the “Australian Made” tour of 1986/87.

With Mystify played live for the very first time the pre-release of KICK, this concert series gave INXS the impetus and platform to hone their song-craft and prepare for what was to be their most i...

Big brother, bandleader, bloody good guitarist!!! Timothy William Farriss could not only interpret the wonderful riffs and funk that little brother Andrew wrote but was the truly ambitious visionary for “how far” this little band, out of the northern beaches of Sydney, could take it! Forming INXS on the day Elvis died on August 16th, 1977, Tim’s distinctive guitar style and musical talent also required him to manage the band in their early days. Averting many a crisis, Tim remained resolute in h...

The Listen Like Thieves; Album review with Haydn & Bee... The precursor album to Kick, Listen like Thieves was the crucial recording that united the world producing talents of Chris Thomas. The man whose genius fingertips contributed to the Beatles White Album, Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon plus producing credits with The Pretenders, U2, and Roxy Music. Arguably, INXS’s greatest guitar album, this cohesive collection of 11 tracks pays homage to the vast landscapes of Australia with a so...

So they say the sequel can never exceed the original. Well, let's challenge that theory as we go again with our interview with Richard Simpkin and his “Almost Famous’ exploits with Michael, Jon, Tim, Gary, Andrew, and Kirk of INXS. An author, a photographer, an interviewer, and a proud purveyor of history, Richard’s insights are both a fascinating and passionate account of a time and place we are all envious to visit. So buckle up, pour a glass of wine, and relax as we escape these current tough...

Well, who would have thought a chance decision to visit The Sebel Townhouse Hotel in Sydney Australia in the Summer of 1989 as a 15-year-old would have led to such a chance interaction with Australia’s most famous sextet and a band of brothers. But this is exactly what happened to Richard Simpkin that lead to lifelong friendships with members of INXS and their entourage, private access to the X album recording sessions, and the rare opportunity to get unique footage of the band in their most nat...

1984 was the year INXS leapt from promising brash prodigies to international recording players. The Swing undertook the genius production values of Nile Rodgers and Nick Launay and saw the band stretch their sound with the addition of funk, orchestral flourishes and salsa rhythms that had fans heading straight to the dancefloor. With no song sounding similar to another, the band’s musical leap was full of daring, unique creativity and unabashed charm. With many contributions from all of the band...

A band of many styles, influences, and sounds that simply couldn’t be pigeonholed by the critics and wider media. With their broad abilities to play many genres such as funk, rock, dance, ska, soul, and R&B, we celebrate and acknowledge all these particular sounds in their repertoire. Plus we launch the exciting new segment “Pleasure and Pain” ...
