AUSTRALIA'S LEADING SUPPLIER OF CORPORATE & SPECIAL EVENT ENTERTAINMENT AUSTRALIAN RECORDING ARTISTS
JOHN PAUL YOUNG BASED: Sydney, Australia JPY has never made a big deal about the successes he’s had in his 27 year career, or about his four million plus worldwide album sales, he simply goes about his work as a singer, songwriter, radio announcer and television personality with the same matter of fact approach, as the skilled tradesman - with attention to detail and a love of his craft. John doesn’t deny the release of the movie “Strictly Ballroom” virtually re-invented him in the public’s eye, and he calmly rode and enjoyed that wave which took him to Spain to appear on two of Spanish television’s major European networks, Japan to perform for members of their Royal Family, Thailand, Fiji, and performances at many of Australia’s highest profile events like the Sydney Olympic 2000 bid, the AFI Awards, the Australian Music Awards and the Australian Grand Prix Ball. Although touring for months on end is less frequent these days, his show, ably backed by his band of 21 years -The Allstar Band - has been a huge hit in the Corporate Market. Events for General Motors Holden, Toyota, Subaru, National Mutual, McDonalds, Digital Equipment Corporation, National Panasonic, Dairy Farmers, AMP and I.B.M. to name a few, gave him the days free to experiment with radio, achieving further success, as an announcer, at both NewFM in Newcastle and Sydney’s 2CH. He currently has a syndicated Radio programme aptly named “Yesterday’s Hero’s” which is broadcast throughout the eastern states of Australia on the RG Network. John’s role as a television personality has seen him appear on many national programmes: the Coca Cola Summer Promotion, Channel 7’s Hard Yards, the premiere of Channel 9’s Don’t Forget Your Toothbrush, Channel 2’s Roy and HG, 9’s This is Your Life tribute to Molly Meldrum & Jon English, 10’s Monday to Friday presenting the entertainment & music news segment and 7’s Full Frontal with a spoof on the footy show, “The Netty Show”, performing “Simply the Tops”, a take off of the Tina Turner football anthem “Simply the Best”. He’s also crossed the pond to New Zealand where he performed and competed in NZTV’s “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune” Christmas Special. He won the game, and the show won the highest ratings of the year. Over the last few years, John has released the “NOW” album; Then returned to Germany, after an absence of 20 years, to appear on all the major TV programmes & specials, prompting a month long tour there in ’98, performing right across the country backed by his outfit of 20 years “The Allstar Band“; He has played the role of Record Producer, Gus Sharkey (aka Phil Spector) in the stage production of “Leader of the Pack”; He’s had a reworked version of his 70’s hit “I Hate the Music” recorded with contemporary band Ratcat for the Australian movie “Occasional Course Language”. Another song “All Hell Broke Loose” written with Angry Anderson and John’s long time keyboard player “Pig” Morgan released by the contemporary band “with attitude” Rose Tattoo. He’s appeared in a quirky Kraft foods TV commercial which uses another of his big hits “Yesterday‘s Hero”. And was part of the celebrity line-up at the closing ceremony of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games with a show-piece performance of “Love Is In The Air”, complete with 1200 dancers, a dozen huge dancing dolls and a crowd of 110,000 all singing the chorus. As John says about his career, “....every day brings somethin’ new”. July ’00 Just a few of JPY's biggest hits
