Enquire about Ian 'Molly' Meldrum for your next event |
He's our home-grown legend, Molly the Music Guru . Internationally, he is a friend of the famous, respected by the music industry - Ian "Molly" Meldrum "knows his stuff"! For four decades, Ian has nurtured local talent and played a key role in placing Australian contemporary recording artists on the world map.
He was responsible for the institution that was "Countdown", for thirteen years it was the showcase for the finest from the music world, both locally and overseas.
"Countdown" established itself almost immediately in 1974 as a world class program and was responsible for introducing the ABBA phenomenon to the world. Local groups made their mark through this program, as such as ACDC, Skyhooks, John Paul Young and Sherbet. It was an exciting era.
Ian's interest can be tracked back to his school days, when he grew up in an era caught up in the phenomenon of the Beatles, and like so many of his generation was able to identify with their form of music. |
