It's 1972 and two shy but gifted 20-year-old New Zealanders have locked themselves away with their guitars and a strong creative impulse.
"We wrote two songs in one night in this little flat we shared in Auckland, and they were gold to us," Tim Finn, one of those young men, tells Double J's Karen Leng.
Tim Finn joins Karen Leng on Double J to talk about getting Split Enz back together, reuniting for their first Australian shows in over 15 years.
It’s been a long wait, but this reunion gig did not disappoint
Nostalgia acts are supposed to take you back to a specific time in your life, but Split Enz disbanded in 1984, before I was born, so I guess I am nostalgic for my entire life. Their music permeated every inch of my upbringing in Aotearoa New Zealand, and this reunion tour, their first in almost 20 years, didn’t disappoint.
The band takes the stage under the cover of a golden cloth. Out burst four early members of the Split Enz and two newer recruits, all dressed in outrageous two-piece suits. On the stage there is double everything: two percussionists, two pianists, two guitarists, two brothers, in an ever-rotating musical arrangement that demonstrates the extraordinary capabilities of everyone in the band.
