Air Supply are one of Australia’s biggest exports yet they often are forgotten to be included in our top earners and achievers. The duo has been around for about 35 years and they have proved their longevity to audiences around the world with their stellar music and amazing stage presence.
I am the first to admit that tonight I thought I’d be in for a chillaxing night of love songs and passion sung by two extremely talented men and that there would be females in awe of this duo. The latter proved me right but not the chillaxing part. Air Supply put on a two hour show filled with rock and love and with just the right amount of orchestra. Yes, the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra is there, behind the band in full bloom taking us all on an even bigger journey of Air Supply songs. Soft rock is at its finest with Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock known collectively as the singer and the song. They belted out the hits such as Here I Am, Every Woman In The World, All Out Of Love and new songs titled Me Like You and Dance With Me which are off their new album. Russell’s voice (the one born in Melbourne) is magic, so incredible live and a voice that hasn’t lost one iota of gorgeous sound. Graham’s voice (the English one) is softer and although he rocks out on guitar more, he proves that harmonised together their sound is unique and outstanding.
If you haven’t seen the band I suggest you do so before you regret it. Whilst Hamer Hall (balcony seats) aren’t the best view – one feels like they have crept in to see the band from up above – the night however will take you to a new level on your thoughts of the group Air Supply.
Air Supply, the ones that we love!
