Flashpoint Principals
Harry Vanda
Director/Producer
Harry's credentials as a producer are quite astounding including over 100 million sales worldwide for acts such as AC/DC, Flash And The Pan and JPY. A bonafide legend of the Australian music industry, Harry's legacy is enormous and ongoing. From guitarist and co-songwriter of the Easybeats in the 60's (Australia's first major international contender), to co-writer of one of the most loved songs the world has ever heard 'Love is in the air', his enduring partnership with George Young became the most prolific success story of the 60's, 70's and 80's in Australia and internationally. Today he still continues to produce young cutting edge acts such as British India. A testament to his ability to always be at the forefront of modern music and an inspiration for many generations to come.....
