Men At Work and Toad The Wet Sprocket

Formed in Goleta, CA (1986), alt-rock band Toad the Wet Sprocket—Glen Phillips, Todd Nichols & Dean Dinning—known for introspective lyrics, melodic guitars & vocal harmonies.

Men at Work, formed in Melbourne by Colin Hay and Ron Strykert, soared in the new wave era with hit singles "Who Can It Be Now?" and "Down Under," both chart-toppers. Their debut album, *Business as Usual*, broke records, staying 15 weeks atop U.S. charts. Known for their catchy guitar hooks and saxophones, the band won a Grammy for Best New Artist in 1982. Their second album, *Cargo*, featured hits like "Overkill." Despite a decline post their third album *Two Hearts*, Hay pursued a solo career. Men at Work occasionally reunited for live shows until Greg Ham's passing in 2012.
