Icehouse, initially formed as Flowers in Sydney in 1977, became a cornerstone of Australian rock under Iva Davies’ leadership. Starting as a pub rock act with Davies on vocals and Keith Welsh on bass, Flowers built a reputation through electrifying live shows, blending covers with originals. Their 1980 debut album Icehouse exploded onto the scene, earning multi-platinum status with hits like "Can’t Help Myself" and "We Can Get Together." Its synth-driven sound marked a bold evolution for Australian music. Renamed Icehouse in 1981, during an international tour of the UK and North America, they scored a Top 10 single at home with "Love in Motion". After the original lineup dissolved, Davies’ near-solo effort Primitive Man (1982) delivered "Great Southern Land," a defining anthem praised for capturing Australia’s essence. Meanwhile from that same album "Hey Little Girl" became a massive dance hit in England and across Europe. Subsequent albums Sidewalk (1984) and Measure for Measure (1986) showcased Davies’ experimental edge, with "No Promises" also first emerging from a ballet "Boxes" with the Sydney Dance Company. Their pinnacle, Man of Colours (1987), dominated with "Crazy" and "Electric Blue," selling over a million copies locally. Both tracks were also high in the Billboard charts in the USA. The ensuing albums "Code Blue" (1990) and "Big Wheel" (1993) remain firm favourites to the bands old and young fans. Icehouse’s "The Berlin Tapes", released in 1995, is a unique covers album in conjunction with the Sydney Dance Company’s ballet "Berlin". The album showcases Davies’ versatile voice, while some tracks, like the Velvet Underground’s "All Tomorrow’s Parties," stand out for their dark, baroque flair.
