Indecent Obsession Biography
Indecent Obsession was an Australian pop band. They formed in 1987 in Brisbane. Australian music guru Molly Meldrum signed the band to his record label Melodian. The band tasted success with the single "Say Goodbye" hitting the Australian Top 10 in August 1989. The follow-up single "Tell Me Something" landed at #17 two months later, but would be the band's last Australian Top 20 single. "Tell Me Something" was picked up by US radio in early 1990 and the song landed at #31 without the band ever setting foot in America. The retitled "Indecent Obsession" album (for the American market) peaked at #148 in 1990.
In Australia, the group was marketed as a teen pop act, which was an image the band members resented; they believed it negatively impacted their radio airplay and undercut their credibility as musicians.
Lead singer David Dixon left the group in 1992 to pursue acting, including the role of Joseph in the Australian version of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. "Joseph Mega-Mix" (for the soundtrack) was released in Australia in mid-1993 - and went to AUS#53. In 1995, David recorded a solo single called "Faith, Love & Understanding", which was a minor radio hit in South Africa. He also acted 'Marius' in "Les Miserables", and performed in "Smokey Joes Cafe".
In addition to his musical career, David also played Nathan Roberts in the Australian TV soap Home & Away, worked on UK radio and television as a presenter and now works as a Helicopter Pilot. He is married with children, and flies for Air Ambulance.
Indecent Obsession's Michael Szumowski has worked as a producer for performers including Australian all-girl groups Cherry and Bardot, and Australian Idols Guy Sebastian, Shannon Noll and Kate DeAraugo, plus Disco Montego and Thirstee.
Daryl Sims went on to play with Sydney based alternative bands Vapourware, Insurge and Primary. He also had minor success with dance outfit The Webb in the late 1990s, and penned Bardot's debut single Poison
The guitarist Andrew Coyne played on Tommy Page "Under The Rainbow" and toured with Tommy in USA in 1990-91.
