Airdate: The Go-Betweens: Right Here

ABC doco looks back on an 80s band from Brissy later this month.

If you remember songs like Streets of Your Town and Cattle & Cane then you will likely want to check out The Go-Betweens: Right Here a doco airing as part of ABC’s Ausmusic month.

The Go-Betweens: Right Here is a documentary about the people who created the seminal rock band The Go-Betweens. It is a heartfelt story of discovery, uncovering the intensely passionate, creative, and fraught relationships that formed one of the most loved and influential bands in Australian rock history. It is also the universal story of a great creative adventure that spanned three decades, through countless successes, failures, romances, break-ups, betrayals, triumphs, and tragedies. The Go-Betweens: Right Here is a compelling investigation into the exhilarating, unpredictable, and precarious lives of musicians, that reveals the true price paid by them to pursue their art.

The Go-Betweens: Right Here exposes all the highs, the lows, the joy, the pain, the sorrow, and the beauty of being in a cult band and of trying to survive the harsh and brutal realities of an exploitative music industry.

This film tells the story of The Go-Betweens from the inside out, from the people who lived it, and from those whose lives were transformed by it.
