Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock met on May 12, 1975 and formed Air Supply.The band recently performed their 5000th concert in Las Vegas. Last month they were proclaimed the top 5 Greatest Aussie Bands of All Time. They perform about 130 concerts each year, including this Thursday night at Troy Savings Bank Music Hall.
I talked to Graham about songwriting, how the band has lasted, and their very first tour with Rod Stewart. Photo credit: Denise Truscello.
