With countless hits such as “Original Sin,” “What You Need,” “Mystify,” “Suicide Blonde,” “By My Side,” “Don’t Change,” “Need You Tonight,” “Listen Like Thieves,” “Disappear,” “New Sensation” & “Never Tear Us Apart”, INXS dominated the airwaves, record stores, and stadiums around the world. Their sound was initially classified as “new wave” by some critics, but ultimately, their blend of rock, rhythm and blues, and funk was an entirely original sound, captivating millions worldwide.

INXS performed over 2000 shows, and their iconic live performance at Wembley Stadium in front of a sold-out crowd of 74,000 fans counts as one of Wembley’s most memorable concerts ever. Filmed in 35mm and restored in 4K with an Atmos mix by Giles Martin, the executive music producer of INXS, the concert is a timeless reminder of one of the world’s greatest live bands.
The INXS legacy continues to expand, proving that true artistry is never confined to a single era – it thrives across generations. INXS’s music was always ahead of its time, and its influence remains undeniable today.

We pay our respects to their Elders — past, present and emerging — and acknowledge the valuable contribution they have made and continue to make to the cultural landscape of this country.
