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.

crowded house return with the release of a brand new album. 'intriguer' is released by mercury records and is a classic return to form for the band, featuring heartfelt and evocative lyrics and irresistible melodies. with special guest musicians and innumerable instruments and influences from all over the world, the album sounds as fresh as when the band first started out in 1985. solo albums, collaborations and reunions have followed throughout the years but all enjoy neil's distinctive sound. the band, vocalist / guitarist neil finn, nick seymour (bass), mark hart (keyboards / guitars) and matt sherrod (drums ), started work on the new album last year in auckland, new zealand with producer jim scott. the songs were written over the previous 18 months, many had evolved and been worked over on the road - sometimes ending up very different, sometimes back to how they started. the title for their sixth studio album was inspired by a shadowy figure seen only once in 2001 behind curtains at a sydney hotel by neil and australian artist / cartoonist michael leunig. the intriguers influence however is often felt, through the years whenever strange events unfold and difficult scenarios ensue..as neil says "the intriguer continues to confound us but still we crave his presence , life seems so dull when he's not around."
