CONTROVERSY
Imagine being transported back to a time when bellbottoms, afros, yuppies, electric boogaloo, platforms and carefree dancing were the rave. A time when there were no rules – when people put on their boogie shoes, teased hair and danced to the sound of the underground chanting to Debbie Gibson’s “Electric Youth”.… Controversy – the only authentic live show reproduction of two classic decades.
What separates Controversy is their ability to triumphantly perform the Number 1 showstoppers that others dare not touch; leaving audiences overwhelmed beyond fantasy. A relatively new band on the scene, Controversy formed in 2006 with some of the most talented musicians in the Australian industry earning their reputation as both session musicians and leaders in Australian tribute shows. They have quickly made a spectacular impression in both the Melbourne live scene and corporate events playing regularly at Chaise nightclub and functions for ANZ bank, Westpac bank and Holden to name a few. Controversy’s clientele list is vast and growing rapidly successfully providing contracted work in 2007 for companies such as Telstra, Flight Centre, Spring racing carnival fashion parades and Quiksilver.
