The band is the invention of Australian brothers Jeff and Cliff Hoad formed in 2003 as a reaction to what they describe as "faceless fodder".You may remember them as the songwriting show stoppers behind Kings of the Sun(late 80's early 90's). While music was entering its serious flannel shirt dull zone through the rest of the decade (90's), the brothers were plotting their counter strike. 2003 brings "Energy Fun and Entertainment" the roots on which The Rich and Famous were conceived. Taking on the worlds absurd obsession with money and fame they chose their name carefully. With Bass player/artist Dean turner their plan is to rub your face and ears in all the dirt,sleaze, glitz n glamor of true Australian rock n roll. Living by the motto "if you can't beat em rock em" they have been tearing up live shows throughout Australia and have just released a debut Album LIKE A SUPERSTAR .Songs about the good , bad and ugly side of being "The Rich $ Famous" .
