Friday On My Mind

2017

ABC

In 1964 when five young immigrants met in a Sydney migrant hostel and formed a garage band, little did they know that they would take Australian rock’n’roll to the world.

Friday On My Mind is the story of The Easybeats: a mini-series exploring themes of identity, re-invention and belonging. It’s an incredible true story with powerful contemporary relevance. Interwoven with a killer soundtrack, the series touches on themes of celebrity, damnation and redemption.
