Overview
Few musicians are as qualified to call themselves the Australian Rock Collective (ARC).
Comprised of four living legends of Australian rock music – Kram (Spiderbait), Darren Middleton (Powderfinger), Mark Wilson (Jet) and Davey Lane (You Am I) - ARC bring not just the rabid enthusiasm of friends who grew up as diehard fans of rock music and its legacy, but the chops, skills and experience of musicians who have directly contributed to it.
Between them ARC can count 33 ARIA Awards, 16 Top Ten albums, and an ARIA Hall of Famer in Jet. Throw in over 20+ years of heavy international and national touring, sold out shows spanning tiny dive bars to football stadiums, songs that have virtually become national anthems, and collectively ARC can claim several lifetimes worth of sustained musical excellence.
