Ep 5: Pseudo Echo with Brian Canham
Manage episode 323852468 series 3309993
They were at the forefront of Australia's synthpop scene and Pseudo Echo were rewarded for toughing it out on the rock-dominated live music circuit with a string of hits, including debut single "Listening", which the band played an early version of as an unsigned act on Countdown. Lead singer and principal songwriter Brian Canham tells us about that breakthrough appearance and the success that followed with albums Autumnal Park in 1984 and the next year's Love An Adventure, which yielded three top 15 singles. He also discusses the band's chart-topping remake of "Funky Town" and the dramas that unfolded in the aftermath, which led to an unexpected direction change with 1988's Race. If the move in a rockier direction puzzled you at the time, you weren't alone — hosts Gavin and Robbie recall their reaction to the new-look and new-sound Pseudo Echo, and Brian reveals the behind-the-scenes machinations that led to the shift and, ultimately, the band breaking up.
