Calling All Nations - A Fan History of INXS First Edition Book

Thousands of journalists have interviewed and told INXS’s story, but this is the story told by those who loved them the most throughout their career and to this day…the fans.

It’s the journey of 6 Australian school boys who wanted to be in a band. Brothers Andrew, Jon, and Tim Farriss and school friends Michael Hutchence, Kirk Pengilly, and Garry Gary Beers. In 1977 they made it happen.

Over the next 4 decades, they went on to become one of the world’s greatest bands, winning countless awards, playing over 2500 shows to millions of fans. On July 13, 1991, they delivered the show of their lives at Wembley, with a career-defining gig.

Calling All Nations – A Fan History of INXS is a visual and written history of the band curated from generous contributions of 100s of their fans, as well as memories and archive material from the band themselves.

In 1984, INXS had their first number-one hit in Australia with “Original Sin.” The band would later achieve international success in the mid-to-late 1980s and early 1990s with the hit albums Listen Like Thieves, Kick, and X, as well as the singles “What You Need,” “Need You Tonight” (a U.S. number-one single), “Devil Inside,” “Never Tear Us Apart,” “Suicide Blonde,” and “New Sensation.” INXS has sold over 80 million albums worldwide, making them one of Australia’s highest selling music acts of all time.
