Joe Camilleri launched The Black Sorrows, a loose band of like-minded musicians, in 1984. Though they started out as semi-acoustic band playing Zydeco and blues they quickly moved to a full band line up though actual membership remained fluid. From humble beginnings playing inner-city venues around Melbourne and selling albums from the boot of a car, Camilleri started writing original material with band mate Nick Smith and transformed The Black Sorrows into one of the most sophisticated ensembles in the country. The independently released album Dear Children, represented a turning point once CBS/Sony stepped in with a world-wide deal. When radio picked up the classic track, Mystified, The Black Sorrows really took flight releasing multi-platinum sellers Hold On To Me, Harley & Rose and The Chosen Ones.
