Profile

Split Enz were a rock band from New Zealand founded in late 1972 as "Split Ends" by Tim Finn and Phil Judd. The band name was changed to Split Enz at the beginning of 1974. Split Enz had eight songs listed in the APRA Top 100 New Zealand Songs of All Time, more than any other band. Split Enz played its last show on 4 December 1984 in Auckland, New Zealand. The band has since re-united several times, including for benefit concerts in 1986 & 2009, and re-union tours in 1993, 2006 & 2008.

Split Enz were a New Zealand band formed in 1972. Regarded as the first New Zealand band to gain significant recognition outside of Australasia, they were initially noted for their progressive/art rock sound, flamboyant visual style and theatrical performances. The band later moved toward a pop/new wave sound that yielded the breakthrough hit single "I Got You" (1980). Split Enz broke up in 1984. Since that time, the band has staged several brief reunions.
