After years spent as the only internationally touring INXS show in the world, The Australian INXS Show are returning to local stages next month for an extensive run of regional dates, with tickets on sale now. Having first formed out of the seed of an idea planted a decade ago, the six-piece outfit have taken their myriad talents around the globe, performing to dedicated fans of INXS in locations such as Dubai, India, Hawaii, Tahiti, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Vanuatu, Singapore, Japan, China, Bora Bora, New Caledonia, Taipei, and South Korea. Now, the Melbourne-born outfit are coming home once again, bringing their unique INXS theatre experience along with them.

STM had a quick chat with Dellacoma Rio about this amazing tour and ensemble 

(STM)Tell us about your new Tour?

(Del) Its the biggest tour we’ve ever done! So far over 30 dates announced and we’re still booking. We’ll likely hit close to 50 theatres across all states and territories in the next 15 months.

What’s the creative process like for you?

Quite organic really. I allow the songs to lead this process 

If you could change something about the music industry what would change?

I would cut through a bit of the red tape around touring and releasing music

What do you think life would be like for you if you didn’t have music/visual art as an outlet?

That would be terrible! A life without art or music is not a concept I really want to think about. Music and art weave through all parts of our daily lives, almost without realising it. Even those who don't see themselves as artistic are surrounded by the effects of art and music. Art and music is a tangible way of bringing dreams into our everyday waking life

Is there anyone you would like to collaborate with?

I would love to collaborate with Richie Kotzen or Jonathan Cain (Journey). It would be amazing as well to get in a room with Bob Rock or Rick Rubin too!

What’s your advice to young people who want to make a career for themselves in the industry?

Sit down and figure out what you want. Anything you want to do is possible as long as you are focused and determined. Get specific then put steps in place that you can actually follow through on. Perhaps most importantly, make sure you are being honest about what you enjoy. Joy comes through in art and if you aren’t enjoying yourself then it will show.

What’s your favourite song to perform?

At the moment I’d have to say “New Sensation” but “Never Tear Us Apart” is always up there for me.

Got any secret hobbies that we might be surprised by?

I love to create picture frames, art and furniture out of reclaimed wood and occasionally shells and beach items
