Ever wondered how a skating rink performance could catapult a band to international fame?

Join us as we sit down with Brian Canham, the charismatic lead singer of the iconic Australian 80s band Pseudo Echo. Brian takes us on a nostalgic journey from his early gigs, including that unforgettable first performance, to the spontaneous addition of "Funky Town" to their setlist and its meteoric rise to becoming a global hit. You'll hear intriguing anecdotes about interactions with music legends Molly Meldrum and Lee Simon, and how these personalities were pivotal in turning Pseudo Echo from local heroes into international stars.

But that's not all – we also uncover the band's early struggles and triumphs, focusing particularly on the invaluable support from Molly Meldrum, which led to significant exposure on Countdown. Listen to tales from the Countdown Awards, including a memorable moment with Michael Hutchence, and discover how Pseudo Echo's knack for choosing great covers, like "Nutbush," played a role in their success. Plus, we chat about the thrilling rediscovery of lost demo tapes, shedding light on the joys and challenges of working with vintage equipment.
