Directed by ARIA and AACTA Award winner Paul Goldman and produced by Bethany Jones, Ego: The Michael Gudinski Story features a stellar cast.
The documentary stars a who’s who of the music industry, including Michael Gudinski and his family, as well as the artists whose early careers were helped by the man himself, such as Jimmy Barnes, Vika & Linda Bull, Garbage, Dave Grohl, Paul Kelly, Kylie Minogue, Mark Seymour, Ed Sheeran, Bruce Springsteen, Sting, and more.
It’s billed as the definitive Michael Gudinski story, following a journey through an all-too-rare behind-the-scenes look at Mushroom Group and how that seminal independent music company shaped a cultural movement and soundtrack for a nation.
In October, season three of Zan Rowe’s successful music program, Take 5 With Zan Rowe, aired on ABC.
Based on her Double J podcast, Take 5, the television version follows the same format: a star sits down with Rowe and chooses five songs related to a theme of her choosing. The latest season hosted Dannii Minogue, Bill Bailey, Claudia Karvan, Neil Finn, Bernard Fanning, and Casey Donovan.
