Artist Biography by

This awkward Australian side-project from Midnight Oil's Rob Hirst and the Hoodoo Gurus' Rick Grossman was the red-haired Richard Hell-indebted stepson that fans of either band could enjoy. While the Ghostwriters' rich lyricism and rotating supporting cast lacked the classic disobedience of Oil and the levity of the Gurus, their sweep of unpolished aboriginal garage rock and dense production topography made for a consistently unique sound.
