They try to saturate the US market but unfortunately they did not have a good break there. That’s why they return to Australia to start again and made a record called “Life Support” and this record somehow found its way to Clive Davis of New York.

Clive immediately signed Air Supply to Artista Records and in 1980, “lost in love” which is a part of “Life Support record” became the fastest selling single in the world and leaped to the top of the all the charts. And up to now Airsupply music was still played endlessly on radio.

Air Supply will have their concert at Manila on June 14, 2008 Saturday 8:00pm at the Araneta Coliseium. For ticket reservation you may visit www.ticketnet.com

Graham Russell & Russell Hitchcock first met on May 12 1975 during the first day of rehearsals for “JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR” in Sydney Australia. Both of them have an intimate passion in music and their favorite band is Beatles. After their show performance at 10:30, they love to play at pizza parlors, coffee bars and night clubs with just one guitar and two voices with these they quickly gained a reputation for great harmonies and for the original composition of Graham.

They decided to make a demo cassette of their two songs, “Love and Other Bruises” and “If You Knew Me” and submit it to every record company in Sydney. Most of the companies refuse them but CBS Record admired their unique style. Thus, Air Supply was born.
