| Summary Note |
In 1964 when five young newly arrived immigrants met in a Sydney migrant hostel and formed a garage band, little did they know that they would take Australian rock'n'roll to the world. This is the story of The Easybeats. More than just a classic rags-to-riches tales, it's an incredible story of identity, re-invention and belonging. Interwoven with a killer soundtrack and filled with contemporary relevance, FRIDAY ON MY MIND is about five disparate immigrant boys joining forces with a talented young visonary to create groundbreaking music and Australia's first truly international rock group. |
