    John Farnham Musician

    Farnham is the one Australian artist who stages arena-sized concerts whenever he tours to satisfy the demand. He is, without challenge, Australia’s most successful solo artist, on-stage and on record. His Whispering Jack album was the first album to sell over a million copies in Australia alone.

    At the age of 18, in September 1967, he was signed to a recording contract and released the novelty single “Sadie the Cleaning Lady,” which became the biggest-selling single in Australia at that time. As a song, the record’s success almost defies logic. What fans were responding to was “Johnny” Farnham’s bright boy-next-door personality. He was someone both teenage girls and their mothers could both like.

    Changing from “Johnny” to the more mature John Farnham, in 1980, he set about resurrecting his career. The trigger was a dramatically rearranged, impassioned performance of the Beatles’ “Help” on a nationally broadcast Royal Command TV concert. He reminded everyone what a fine singer he was, and in July, he released Uncovered, a well-received comeback album recorded under the production eye of Little River Band’s Graham Goble.

    John Farnham during the 2000s consolidated his song-focused approach to performing, bringing in great material from all quarters for 2000s 33-1/3; leading with the Jagger-Richards chestnut “The Last Time” for a 2002 album of the same name, and saluting the hits of his homeland with 2005’s I Remember When I Was Young: Songs from the Great Australian Songbook.

    After a five-year gap between albums, 2010’s Jack featured covers of material by soul icons including Ray Charles, Curtis Mayfield, and Percy Sledge. Occasional concert or live albums appeared as well, including 2015’s Two Strong Hearts Live with Olivia Newton-John. The two reunited one year later for a holiday-themed album, Friends for Christmas, which became Farnham’s first number one album in nearly 15 years.

    John Farnham Awards and Achievements

    Throughout his musical career, Farnham has won and been nominated for numerous Australian music and entertainment awards. These include 20 ARIA Awards from 56 nominations including his induction into their Hall of Fame.Others are Countdown Music and Video Awards, Mo Awards and TV Week magazine’s King of Pop Awards and their Logie Awards.
