Rick Davies, co-founder of Supertramp and the man behind classics like Goodbye Stranger and Bloody Well Right, has died at the age of 81 after a long battle with cancer. His death was confirmed by the band in a statement, noting he passed away at his home on Long Island on September 5.

Roger Hodgson, the former voice and co-founder of Supertramp, has lost his latest legal appeal in a battle over publishing royalties with his ex-bandmates – reigniting decades of tensions that have haunted the group since his split from Rick Davies in the early 1980s.

Former Supertramp member Roger Hodgson will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the band's icon 'Breakfast In America' album with shows in Australia in 2019.

Music photographer Ian Laidlaw covered Bluesfest for Noise11 and captured the moment for the artists as they performed at Australia’s most loved music festival.

Never before have so many major music names been in Australia at one time. Without question, Australia is the music centre of the universe right now and that is with thanks to three people … Peter Noble, Michael Chugg and Rob Potts.

Bluesfest’s Peter Noble has caught his “great white whale”. After years of persevering Robert Plant will play at Bluesfest in 2013.

The voice of Supertramp, Roger Hodgson, will return to Australia for Bluesfest 2013.
