The ‘80s.
The era of Hawke, a booming economy, big hair, gender
benders and the new-wave synth-pop explosion.
Every Sunday night, Australians would be glued to
Countdown to watch the latest and local bands strut their
stuff. Bands who became household names and soundtracked our lives in one of the most colourful and creative
decades in Australian music.
I Hear Motion is a celebration of the Aussie bands we loved:
Models, Machinations, Wa Wa Nee, Real Life, Kids in the
Kitchen, Do-Re-Mi, Koo De Tah, Eurogliders, Boom Crash
Opera and more – and what happened to them following the
end of the decade. With interviews, never-before seen photos
and archives of the time, plus never-before told stories about
the songs, bands, excesses and break-ups, I Hear Motion is a
must-have for every Australian music fan.
An amazing journey through the ‘80s music in Australia.
—Gavin Wood, the voice of Countdown
