Van The Man had its roots in the highly successful Sydney wine bar circuit of the 1970’s.
Hogan and The Becketts (the backbone of Van the Man) played all the hits through the 80’s and 90’s, with Van Morrison being one of the favourites.
In 1999 Van the Man was formed and started its career with a bang, being invited to perform at the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.
Van the Man has gone on to perform for State of Origin fixtures, Bledisloe Cup Finals and sold out one of Sydney’s premier live music venues, The Basement and was also flown to the United States to perform at an exclusive function at the prestigious Chicago Yacht Club, after Van Morrison himself was unavailable. Other premium venues include Lizottes, The Brass Monkey Cronulla, The Camelot Lounge Marrickville, The Hydro Majestic Hotel Medlow Bath, Centro CBD and The Clarendon Guesthouse in Katoomba.
