Sunnyboys (AKA KIds In Dust)

Live at the Enmore Theatre, Sydney. Anticipation was hanging heavily in the air at the Dig It Up! ‘invitational’ (organised by Hoodoo Gurus in 2012 to celebrate their 30th anniversary). Could the mysterious band billed mid-afternoon as Kids in Dust actually be the long lost Sunnyboys? Indeed it was – and we were there to film this historic return. For those who may not be familiar with them, Sunnyboys were (and are again!) an Australian post-punk, power pop band originally formed in Sydney at the dawn of the 1980s. Fronted by singer-songwriter, guitarist Jeremy Oxley, the band breathed some much needed freshness and vitality into the divergent Sydney scene. Sadly, a range of medical issues for Jeremy led to the untimely disintegration of the band in the mid-80s. But their reputation lived on during the ensuing decades and the crowd for this mid-afternoon set rivalled only the Gurus themselves for people per square metre (and the Gurus' killer set is also on Moshcam now – check it out). There was no way to be ‘alone with you’ that day!
