AIR SUPPLY presented by Sunrise Theatre & AEG presents

Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock met on May 12, 1975, in Sydney, Australia; they became instant friends with their common love for The Beatles and, of course, singing. They quickly gained a reputation for great harmonies and for original songs that Graham was constantly writing. They made a demo on a cassette of two songs and took it to every record company in Sydney. Everyone turned it down but one – CBS Records.

They made a single in one afternoon and it shot to number one on the national charts. Air Supply was born! That same year, they opened for Rod Stewart across Australia and the U.S. Back in Australia, they made a record called Life Support. On this record were some treasures of songs, including “Lost in Love” which went Top 10 in Australia and somehow found its way to music industry executive Clive Davis in New York.
