If it’s true that practice makes perfect then Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock – beloved by their millions of fans across the planet as Air Supply – have had nearly half a century to hone their skills harness their passion and unleash the beautifully intimate yet rockin’ romantic energy of those instantly identifiable 80s hits that made them global superstars.As they close in on 50 years (exact date May 12 1975) since they met in the chorus of the Australian touring company of Jesus Christ Superstar the duo is ever-present on the road in North America and overseas to the tune of 130 dates a year - and look forward to a milestone 5500th live show in fall 2024. This run includes being the first Western group to tour China and several other countries who prior to their breakthrough would not allow pop music across their borders as well as performing for a record 175000 people in Cuba in 2005.
Air Supply’s overall sales and airplay stats are equally astounding equaling their heroes The Beatles’ run of five consecutive Top Five Singles (“Lost in Love” “All Out of Love” “Every Woman in the World” “The One That You Love” “Here I Am”); selling a collective total of 20 million copies of their first three albums (Lost in Love The One That You Love Now & Forever) and the 1983 Greatest Hits collection; achieving multi-million radio plays for five of their hits (including “Sweet Dreams” and the Jim Steinman-penned “Making Love Out of Nothing At All”); and having Graham honored with a BMI Million-Air Certificate recognizing three million performances of “All Out Of Love.”
