BUY TICKETS Russell Hitchcock and Graham Russell of Air Supply met in 1975 on the first day of rehearsals for “Jesus Christ Superstar” in Sydney, Australia, and they’ve been performing together ever since.

Their hits include “Lost In Love”, “Sweet Dreams”, “Love And Other Bruises”, and many others. Hitchcock says he and Russell are looking forward to the show at OPAC as the band begins it’s 2019 tour. “It’s the beginning of a new year, so we’ll probably have a couple of surprises, but we just want to get back and play again.” In a phone interview with Hitchcock, we talked about his career and a new album in which Air Supply teamed up with the Prague Symphony Orchestra.
