Crowded House and The Waterboys

With over 15 million records sold, Crowded House has won 13 ARIA Awards, an MTV VMA, and a BRIT Award. Known for hits like “Don’t Dream It’s Over,” they excel in jangle-pop.

Edinburgh-born Mike Scott formed the Waterboys in London in the '80s, blending soulful rock, folk, and Celtic sounds. Known for "The Whole of the Moon," their work spans genres, with acclaimed albums like *This Is the Sea* and *Fisherman's Blues*. Frequent collaborator Steve Wickham and Scott's dynamic line-up changes define their sound evolution. The band explored W.B. Yeats' poetry in 2011, and in 2022, *All Souls Hill* saw them dive into hip-hop influences.
