One of the most popular and successful bands in the country, they were one of the few Australian bands of their time to lead with their original material; their first album Easy (1965) was one of the earliest Australian rock albums featuring all original songs.

The five founding members, all migrants from Europe, met at the Villawood Migrant Hostel in Sydney in 1964. They rose to national prominence in 1965 with the song "She's So Fine", which reached No. 3 in Australia.
