With a career spanning 25 years, INXS are undoubtedly one of the world’s great bands. With more than 30 million records sold worldwide and countless awards, the band is arguably Australia’s most successful rock export. Determined, dedicated and sure-footed, INXS propelled themselves out of Sydney, Australia at the end of the 70s with such energy and resilience that in less than a decade they were being hailed as being, with U2 and Guns N' Roses, one of the three biggest bands in the world. In Australia, INXS celebrated their first number one single, "Original Sin," in December 1983, beginning a phenomenal run of 38 top 40 hits. The death of Michael Hutchence in November 1997 had a profound impact on INXS. The future for the band was very much uncertain. A May 2000 concert - the first with Jon Stevens on vocals - saw 1,200 loyal fans scrambling for tickets. By the middle of 2002, the inevitable and inexorable return of INXS to the international concert arena saw the band depart for South, Central and North America on a full-scale tour. 2005 opened with INXS Rock Star. In conjunction with Mark Burnett Productions, the band searched for their new singer using an "unscripted drama" TV series. The show was a smash hit. INXS can still rock with the best of 'em, to say the least.
