Boom Crash Opera – Dale Ryder, Pete Farnan, Peter “Maz” Maslen and John Favaro – have enjoyed a busy year so far, opening for Roxette in March and embarking on a co-headline tour with fellow ‘80s Australian rockers Models.
In December 2023, Boom Crash Opera were cover stars on The Music. “There is only one way to play our music, and that is on 11,” Maz told The Music. “Over the years, we’ve learnt that we have to play the music in a certain way. We have tried pulling it back here and there, but that doesn’t work. We play it as hard as we can, full tilt.”
