Human Nature

Mon 2 Nov 7pm

Palais Theatre, Melbourne

For more than three decades, Human Nature have soundtracked Australian lives - in our cars, at our weddings, on our biggest national stages, and on the iconic Las Vegas strip a long way from home.

Behind every show, every hit record and every standing ovation is a story they’ve never fully told. Now - for the first and only time - Andrew Tierney, Mike Tierney, Toby Allen and Phil Burton are pulling up four chairs, opening a notebook each, and telling their story.

Only Human: Harmony Through the Hits & Hard Times is the band’s debut memoir and to mark the release, Human Nature are presenting two exclusive live evenings with music front & centre- An Audience with Human Nature- at Melbourne’s Palais Theatre on Monday 2 November, and at the Enmore Theatre in their hometown of Sydney on Wednesday 4 November.

The book tells the part of the story they’ve never quite shared before. For the first time, and written in their own voices, Only Human is an honest reflection on friendship, ambition, family, success and survival – and what it really means to spend more than thirty years growing up together.

It begins in suburban Western Sydney, where four teenagers harmonised in the music room of an agricultural high school music room at a time when being in a vocal group wasn’t anyone’s idea of cool, landing a record deal from an a cappella audition, and building a career that would take them from school halls to stadiums, television studios to the entertainment capital of the world. Along the way, Human Nature enjoyed extraordinary success – including 27 platinum awards, 13 studio albums, four ARIA #1 albums, performances at the Sydney Olympic Games Opening Ceremony before more than a billion viewers worldwide, tours alongside artists like Michael Jackson and Celine Dion, more than 25 Australian tours, performances in over 29 countries, induction into the ARIA Hall of Fame, and more than 2,600 headline shows in Las Vegas - one of the city’s longest-running residencies, and one still running today.
