Colin Hay has postponed his scheduled Australian performances for December after suffering serious respiratory complications connected to the flu and Covid. The announcement halts what would have been Hay's first run of Australian shows since 2024, including two nights at the Melbourne Recital Centre, a performance at Sydney's Enmore Theatre, and an appearance this weekend at the Meredith Music Festival. All dates will be rescheduled to June 2026.

The 2025 line-up for the Meredith Music Festival has been revealed and every act named has never performed at the festival before.

In this sit-down with Noise11.com (July 2025), Colin Hay reflects on his longstanding connection with Australia. He shares that after wrapping up a tour with Ringo Starr’s All-Starr Band, he’s gearing up for performances back home in Australia this December—including shows at the Melbourne Recital Centre (December 3–4) and Sydney’s Enmore Theatre (December 11).

Men at Work’s Colin Hay has made a sequel to his 2003 solo album ‘Man @ Work’ where he re-recorded his Men At Work and solo songs.

John Swan (Swanee) has been working for the last few years on a special project. 'Believe' is a duets album featuring John famous friends and family and we have Brian 'Frog' Harris at Songland Records in Canberra for making it all happen.
