Models – one of Australia’s most-loved bands – are going on the road to celebrate the 40th anniversary of their breakthrough hit, ‘I Hear Motion’.

The opening track on the band’s third album, The Pleasure of Your Company, ‘I Hear Motion’ became Models’ first Top 40 hit when it was released in 1983.

It was the beginning of a remarkable ride for the Melbourne band. Soon after, they went on tour with David Bowie. Later, they played for Prince Charles and Princess Diana, hit the US Top 40, were featured in The Andy Warhol Diaries, and inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame. 

Models are that rare breed of bands – one that has successfully straddled critical acclaim, cult appeal and commercial success.
