Biography
Pseudo Echo pioneered the 1980s electro sound in Australia and quickly established themselves as one of the most successful and influential bands in the country. They were the first and only unsigned band to be featured on the legendary music show, Countdown which hailed the beginning of a long string of chart topping hits, gold and platinum albums and sold out tours.
With smash hits like “Listening” and “A Beat for You” from their debut gold album “Autumnal Park” followed by the platinum selling “Love An Adventure” album which featured the hits “Don’t Go Living in a Dream” and the title track “Love An Adventure” the band was set to make its mark on the international stage.Brian Canham (singer/songwriter/guitarist) then came up with the masterstroke to record a killer version of the song “Funky Town”. At just 24 years of age Brian produced a worldwide smash hit which saw them top the Australian charts for 12 weeks, soar to the USA and UK Top 10 as well sa dozens of other countries. Pseudo Echo’s Funky Town came to be the unofficial anthem of the 1980s; big hair, bigger hooks and totally unforgettable. It still packs out dance floors 25 years later. Pseudo Echo’s music continues to influence and resonate today with remixes and samples of their songs by renowned DJ’s such as Smash/n/Grab, Sly, Quench and Mr. Quick.
Featuring the classic line up of Brian Canham, Pierre Pierre, brothers James and Vince Leigh, Pseudo Echo continue their musical legacy by packing out venues and entertaining crowds with their amazing live show, exciting new material and of course, all their hit songs you know and love.
