Hunters and Collectors are a Melbourne based band who first performed in May 1981, generating the most substantial interest of any new Melbourne band.

Their music is unconventional, most notably in the way it is conceived and written. Usually in a rehearsal situation, songs are built on a basic rhythmical idea or theme, producing a fused sound where each player’s contribution meshes and builds the sound and atmosphere to a peak of energy and mood.

The lyrics are written by Mark, Greg and Geoff who try to create vivid images, complimentary to the music and responsive to an underlying sense of humour.

In live performances the band are often joined by a brass section and various other musicians.

Hunters and Collectors have recently released their first and self-titled album. The recording of this album commenced in October 1981 and was completed in April this year. It was recorded at AAV in Melbourne, produced by the band and engineered by Jim Barton and Tony Cohen.
