About the Artist

featuring INXS

INXS earned their place in modern music through a potent mix of style, innovation, and raw talent that transcended genres and borders. Emerging from the Australian pub rock scene in the late 1970s, they evolved into one of the world’s most distinctive and successful bands of the ’80s and ’90s. With their fusion of rock, funk, new wave, and pop, they delivered anthems that were both radio-ready and musically daring. Albums like 'Shabooh Shoobah', 'Listen Like Thieves', and especially 'Kick' showcased a band at the height of its creative powers, pairing infectious hooks with sleek production and the magnetic charisma of frontman Michael Hutchence. Beyond commercial success — with over 70 million records sold worldwide — INXS helped reshape the sound of popular music at a time when synth-driven pop and arena rock rarely met. They proved that an Australian band could not only break into but also dominate the global charts. Their influence is still heard today in artists who blur genre lines and prioritise groove and atmosphere. More than nostalgia, INXS’s music remains vital, innovative, and irresistibly modern — evidence of a legacy not frozen in time, but continuing to evolve.
