Crowded House are a New Zealand/Australian/United States rock group that have existed during two eras: 1986-1996 and 2007-present; two original members were from Australia and one was from New Zealand. The group was based around the songwriting and vocal talents of New Zealand born lead singer, composer and guitarist Neil Finn.
Bursting onto the international scene in 1987 with Don’t Dream It’s Over from the album Crowded House, the band seemed destined for greatness. However, despite eking out one more hit from the album, Something So Strong, the follow up Temple of Low Men failed to repeat its commercial success, despite critical acclaim. Radio had a hard time categorizing them, but within the industry they quickly gained a stellar reputation as “musicians’ musicians”, and outside the industry as one of the best live acts, featuring mixed setlists and improvisations. A set of three shows at one venue would often feature less than half the the songs being played more than once.
It wasn’t until 1991’s Woodface that the band hit international success again, specifically with the jointly written Finn Brothers track Weather With You.
In fact, the album that emerged wasn’t the one originally proposed. Neil had been working on a side project with his brother Tim Finn, a solo artist in his own right and former Split Enz frontman (in fact, several members had a history in Split Enz - Tim formed the band and Neil was responsible for their biggest hit I Got You, while Paul Hester was the drummer during their final days).
