Crowded House is a rock band that was formed in Melbourne, Australia in 1985 and later relocated to Auckland, New Zealand. The founding members included *Neil Finn* from New Zealand as the vocalist, guitarist, and primary songwriter, along with Australians *Paul Hester* on drums and *Nick Seymour* on bass. Over the years, the band underwent several lineup changes, including the addition of permanent member *Mark Hart* in 1993. Despite disbanding in 1996, they reunited in 2006 with new drummer *Matt Sherrod*. Crowded House has released multiple albums and achieved significant success worldwide.

In recognition of their contributions to music, Crowded House was honored with induction into the ARIA Hall of Fame by the Australian Recording Industry Association in November 2016. Throughout their career, they have been associated with similar artists such as Split Enz, Midnight Oil, Neil Finn (solo), Paul Kelly, and many others.

One notable achievement for Crowded House is being the only New Zealand band to reach #2 on the US Billboard Singles chart with their hit single "Don't Dream It's Over." Their unique sound and captivating performances continue to captivate audiences around the world.

For more than four decades, Crowded House leader Neil Finn has been on an evolving, winding journey. Crowded House’s mid-Eighties hits like “Don’t Dream It’s Over” and “Something So Strong,” combined with albums like Woodface and Together Alone, set the standard for the period’s erudite jangle-pop while always pushing the band’s art forward. 

That creative spirit brings Finn and his Crowded House bandmates to Gravity Stairs, their first new release since 2021’s Dreamers Are Waiting and eighth overall. Produced by the band with Steven Schram, the album shows Crowded House in its current incarnation—Finn, Nick Seymour, Mitchell Froom, and Finn’s sons Elroy and Liam—as sharp as ever, feeling musically adventurous, and still capable of reaching the staggering highs that have made them an international favorite. It’s the act of climbing those figurative “gravity stairs,” inspired by a heavy stone staircase near where Finn vacations, that he likens to his own mindset as a creator.
