Episode 15 of The Blank Canvas Podcast with Colin Hay.

Master storyteller. Troubadour. Colin hay is that rare combination of deep intellect and pure heart.

This conversation covers the highs and lows of Colin’s career, life, death and everything in between.

Scotland-born, Australia-raised, Colin Hay is best known as chief songwriter, lead singer and guitarist of the eighties band Men At Work.

Their first album Business as Usual spent 15 weeks at No. 1 on the US Billboard chart and delivered the band the Best New Artist - Grammy award in 1982 - beating out The Human League and Stray Cats. Since that time Colin has released 13 solo albums, and has toured the globe countless times performing his intimate live solo shows, which are the stuff of legend. In more recent times Colin has toured internationally with Ringo Starr & His All-Star Band and Colin wrote the title track Ringo’s most recent album - “What’s My Name”.

Colin’s dry wit, that visceral voice and song-writing that puts him in rarified air with the very best. As a film, tv and theatre actor Colin has racked up some impressive credits including: Scrubs, The Resident and The Larry Sanders Show.

‘Now and the Evermore’, is first single from Colin’s forthcoming solo album, which is due out early 2021.
