Born in the leafy green suburbs of Melbourne, Australia; and with vocal harmonies reminiscent of ’60s bands Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and The Beatles, Taxiride featuring Tim Watson, Tim Wild, Sean Mcleod, Andy Mcivor & Ripley Smith (TTSAR), blend retro sensibility with modern style.
Crafted over 2 years in Melbourne and Los Angeles, their debut album ‘Imaginate’ debuted at Number 1 on the Australian Music Charts. It launched 4 singles including the memorable ‘Get Set’ and ‘Everywhere You Go’ (the most-played Australian song on radio for 2000 – written by Tim Wild and Tim Watson).
The second album ‘Garage Mahal’ contained their biggest hit ‘Creepin’ Up Slowly’ (written by Brain, Young, and Taxiride) which was the most-played song on radio for 2002 and featured a further 2 hit singles. TAXIRIDE achieved Top 30 status in the States and subsequently toured the US, Japan and Europe. A 10-year hiatus saw Taxiride ft TTSAR reform in 2015 with a limited run of shows. Taxiride ft TTSAR now returns in 2025 with new live shows featuring faithful renditions of their hits plus their favourite album tracks.
