Formed by Tim Finn in New Zealand in 1972 before relocating to Australia in 1975, Split Enz are behind some of the most beloved hits of the ‘70s and ‘80s, including I Got You, Message To My Girl, Six Months In A Leaky Boat, History Never Repeats, One Step Ahead, and many more.

Split Enz disbanded in 1984 and have only periodically reunited for tours and special events, including the 2009 Sound Relief concert, which, coincidentally, was the band’s last show in Australia.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of Split Enz’s debut album, Mental Notes, which the band celebrated by releasing the first instalment of a landmark archival project, ENZyclopedia Volumes One & Two.
