Few bands in rock history enjoyed as meteoric a rise as Men at Work. Their classic debut album, 'Business as Usual,' spent an astonishing 15 weeks at #1 on the Billboard 200, spawned two chart-topping singles ("Who Can It Be Now?" and "Down Under"), earned the group the Grammy Award for Best New Artist, and has sold 15 million copies worldwide. The success extended far beyond the charts. Men at Work made two appearances on Saturday Night Live, graced the cover of Rolling Stone, dominated MTV with a string of hit videos, performed at the mammoth US Festival, and opened shows for legendary artists including Fleetwood Mac and David Bowie.
But then, almost as quickly as it began, it was over. 'Down Under: The Men at Work & Colin Hay Story' traces the Australian band's extraordinary ascent, its surprisingly swift unraveling, and the career of its unmistakable frontman, Colin Hay, who successfully reinvented himself as a solo artist after the group's demise. What propelled Men at Work from Melbourne pubs to international superstardom? Why did one of the biggest bands of the early '80s fall apart so quickly? And what has fueled the renewed appreciation for their music in recent years? Sit back, make yourself a Vegemite sandwich, and discover the fascinating story behind one of rock's most unlikely—and unforgettable—success stories in 'Down Under: The Men at Work & Colin Hay Story.'
