Colin Hay and Men At Work

Colin Hay, born in Saltcoats, Scotland, found fame as the lead singer of Australian band Men at Work with hits like "Down Under." He transitioned to a solo career, moving to Los Angeles and founding Lazy Eye Records. Known for folk-pop tunes and acting, he gained popularity in the 2000s thanks to Zach Braff featuring his music in "Scrubs" and "Garden State." Hay toured extensively, collaborated with Ringo Starr, and was the subject of the 2015 documentary "Colin Hay: Waiting for My Real Life."

Men at Work, formed in Melbourne by Colin Hay and Ron Strykert, soared in the new wave era with hit singles "Who Can It Be Now?" and "Down Under," both chart-toppers. Their debut album, *Business as Usual*, broke records, staying 15 weeks atop U.S. charts. Known for their catchy guitar hooks and saxophones, the band won a Grammy for Best New Artist in 1982. Their second album, *Cargo*, featured hits like "Overkill." Despite a decline post their third album *Two Hearts*, Hay pursued a solo career. Men at Work occasionally reunited for live shows until Greg Ham's passing in 2012.
