INXS will be honoured with the Ted Albert Award for Outstanding Services To Australian Music at the 2026 APRA Music Awards in Sydney on 29 April, recognising a career that reshaped Australia's global musical identity. The award places INXS among the most significant recipients in APRA history, acknowledging nearly five decades of international impact and cultural influence. A special tribute performance is also planned for the ceremony, marking the occasion as part of APRA's centenary celebrations.

INXS are among the first-time nominees for the 2026 Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, placing the Sydney band alongside Mariah Carey, Phil Collins and Joy Division/New Order on this year's ballot.

On 14 October 1985, INXS released Listen Like Thieves, the album that cracked their international code, and 40 years on it still sounds like a band discovering the shape of its future. The fifth studio album from the Sydney six-piece spent two weeks at number one on the Australian Kent Music Report and became the launchpad that propelled them into the US Top 20, peaking at No. 11 on the Billboard 200.

Jon Stevens has returned with Shimmer, his first solo album in seven years, marking a powerful new chapter in one of Australia's most enduring rock careers. The album arrives alongside the announcement of the Summer of Love Rockfest, a 2026 national tour featuring Stevens alongside Wolfmother and The Screaming Jets.

Australia is set to relive one of the most colourful decades in pop culture when Paulini and Tim Campbell unite for the first time on stage for Electrifying 80s, a national tour spanning 26 shows from March to June 2026.
