INXS

In their 33 years as a band, first as the Farriss Brothers, then as INXS, brothers Tim, Jon and Andrew Farriss, along with Kirk Pengilly and Garry Gary Beers have created some of the most enduring music in rock history. On Original Sin, INXS hits are revitalized for a new century and new generations of music listeners. This ambitious project finds the band teaming up with musicians from around the globe featuring superstars like Train's Pat Monahan, Rob Thomas and Ben Harper to up and comers like Dan Sultan, Argentina's Deborah de Corral and DJ Yaleidys of Cuba. From Thomas and Yaleidys' sultry teaming on "Original Sin" and trip-hop superstar Tricky's electrifying "Mediate" to Pat Monahan's emotional "Beautiful Girl, " INXS boldly embrace their past and future on one album. For members of INXS it didn't make sense to just have one singer, so with Original Sin they decided to do something a bit different. They invited some of the best artists they knew or could think of to be part of the record. To have so many of their peers want to perform INXS songs is a testament to the songwriting and something that INXS keyboardist/guitarist and main songwriter Andrew Farriss is immensely proud of
