Max has become a legend in Australasian music over the past forty years. During the last decade Max Merritt and the Meteors played to ever increasing audiences, made up of both long-time fans and kids who experienced his music live for the first time. Going from strength to strength, the band continued to be one of the most popular and sought after Headline Attractions for Special Events and Music Festivals in Australia and New Zealand.
However, in April 2007 Max discovered he was suffering from the rare autoimmune disorder Goodpastures Syndrome which left him with total kidney failure. To ill to tour and perform, he fell on hard times.
As a mark of respect and affection for Max, the Australasian entertainment industry rallied to stage a fundraising concert at Melbourne's Palais Theatre on 21 October 2007 that raised over $200,000.00 to sustain him.
Max was recently inducted into the Aria Hall of Fame. |

Australian Rock Icon Brian Cadd has been on the road and in the Music Industry for 43 years with a massive career containing many musical adventures in many countries and markets. He continues to move forward with two new albums currently in production and an eagerly awaited autobiography to be published early next year.
Brian has also become much more involved with various charities. He performs an exhausting round of shows and events each year for a large number of charity organizations and can be counted on to lend a hand wherever needed.
To that end he has become involved in an organization that is very close to his heart and to which he gives every spare moment. In July 2007 he became a Director on the Board of the Music Industry benevolent trust, SUPPORT ACT LIMITED. This organization raises and distributes funds to musicians, production crew, producers, writers and other Industry members who have fallen on hard times.
As the Director in charge of State Branches, Brian has opened Support Act branches in Victoria and South Australia with new ones opening this year in New South Wales, Western Australia and Queensland.
In addition, seven years ago, he formed the now notorious Music Industry lunch group, THE DEBONAIRS. Originally started in Victoria with 12 members, the Debonairs have grown into an organization in 3 States with over 1500 members. A most successful social and networking organization, it also provides an enormous talent pool for the various activities and events that provide funds for SUPPORT ACT (www.supportact.com.au).
Widely regarded as a genuine "living legend", in 2009 Brian celebrated 43 years as a performer, writer and producer. From the seminal 60's bands The GROOP and AXIOM, through a highly successful solo career in Australia in the 70's followed by 20 years in the US and Europe writing for Joe Cocker, The Pointer Sisters, The Bellamy Brothers and many more, Brian continues to work as an artist, producer and writer and for the betterment of the music Industry.

The NZ Rockshop concept was created in the mid 80's recognising that New Zealand needed a flagship music retail company. Building on extensive experience overseas in the UK and Europe, Managing Director Mick Webb bought an Auckland music store in 1986 and the first NZ Rockshop was opened.
The philosophy was simple. Buy quality product in bulk, promote aggressively through innovative marketing and offer real value for money.
Today, NZ Rockshops are NZ's biggest chain of wholly owned music stores and currently have 19 locations throughout 13 cities.
The Oxo Cubans are among the New Zealand artists that have been endorsed by this successful national brand.
