Go-betweens (Musical group)

Band formed in Brisbane, Australia, in 1977, co-founded and led by singer-songwriters and guitarists Robert Forster and Grant McLennan. The band split in 1989, and was reformed in 2000 by Forster and McLennan with a new line-up. It disbanded again in 2006 after Forster died of a heart attack.
