Everyone knows INXS and Men at Work. Fewer people outside Australia know how deep the scene went. This show gives Australian new wave of the late ’70s and ’80s its own hour.

Expect bands that broke internationally, like INXS, Midnight Oil and Hoodoo Gurus, next to singles that topped the charts at home and barely made it past customs. Mental As Anything and The Church belong here too.
