- Hoodoo Gurus (referred to as the Gurus by fans) are an Australian rock band, formed in Sydney in 1981, by the mainstay Dave Faulkner (songwriter, lead singer and guitarist) and later joined by Richard Grossman (bass), Mark Kingsmill (drums), and Brad Shepherd (guitar, vocals, harmonica). Their popularity peaked in the mid to late 1980s with albums Mars Needs Guitars!, Blow Your Cool! and Magnum Cum Louder. Hoodoo Gurus had a string of acclaimed pop-rock singles including "Leilani" (1982), "Tojo" (1983), "My Girl" (1983), "I Want You Back" (1984), "Bittersweet", "Like Wow - Wipeout!", and "What's My Scene?". After touring the United States from 1984 onwards they gained popularity on the U.S. college rock circuit with singles "Come Anytime" (1989) reaching #1 and "Miss Freelove '69" (1991) reaching #3 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart. Gurus’ biggest Australian hit single was their 1987 Top 3 hit song "What's My Scene?" or, as modified for the National Rugby League 2000s theme, "That's My Team". Hoodoo Gurus' iconic status on the Australian rock scene was acknowledged when they were inducted into the 2007 ARIA Hall of Fame. Their induction announcement stated that the Gurus were one of the most "inventive, lyrically smart and exciting" bands from Australia. From 1960s power pop, and wild garage punk to hard driving rock and funky psychedelic kitsch their music stood out from Sydney's Detroit-inspired bands.
- Hoodoo Gurus (conocidos como Gurus por sus seguidores) son una banda australiana de rock, creada en Sídney en 1981, por Dave Faulkner, al que se unirían Richard Grossman, Mark Kingsmill, y Brad Shepherd (guitarra, voces y armónica). Su popularidad llegó a su máximo a finales de los años 80 con álbumes como Mars Needs Guitars!, Blow Your Cool! y Magnum Cum Louder. Hoodoo Gurus tuvo una larga serie de sencillos de pop-rock entre los que destacan "Leilani", "Tojo", "My Girl" (1983), "I Want You Back", "Bittersweet", "Like Wow - Wipeout!, o "What's My Scene?". Después de hacer gira por los Estados Unidos en 1984, empezaron a ganarse un nombre en el circuito de college rock con la llegada al #1 y #3 de la lista Modern Rock Tracks de la revista Billboard de los sencillos "Come Anytime" y "Miss Freelove '69", respectivamente. El mayor éxito en la lista de sencillos australiana fue su #3 en 1987 con el sencillo "What's My Scene?" En 2007, Hoodoo Gurus, entraron en el Salón de la Fama ARIA de Australia. Desde el power pop, y el garage punk, al rock duro y rock psicodélico inspirada en la música de Detroit, su música estaba a otro nivel del resto de grupos de Sídney de la época.
- Hoodoo Gurus foi uma banda australiana de pop rock que se tornou muito popular entre os surfistas de vários países durante as décadas de 80 e 90. Recebeu influências de alguns estilos musicais dos anos 70, como o power pop e o bubblegum pop. Dentre seus principais hits, encontram-se Come Anytime, What's my Scene, I Want You Back e 1000 Miles Away, entre outros.
- Hoodoo Gurus (иногда — Gurus) — австралийская рок-группа, образованная в Сиднее в 1981 году гитаристом, певцом и автором песен Дэйвом Фолкнером (Dave Faulkner, экс-Victims, Manikins). В первый состав также вошли Кимбл Рендалл (Kimble Rendall, гитара, вокал, экс-XL Capris), Роли Радалж и Джеймс Бэйкер . Hoodoo Gurus практически игнорировали стилистические границы, исполняя ретро-пауэр-поп («I Want You Back», «What’s My Scene?»), гаражный панк («Leilani», «Like Wow-Wipeout»), хард-рок («Axegrinder», «The Right Time»), фанк-психоделию («Miss Freelove `69») и т. д. Важную роль в формировании мировоззрения группы сыграла американская поп-культура, c её «мусорным» элементом. Любимыми исполнителями Hoodoo Gurus (перечисленными в песне «Let’s All Turn On») были The Cramps, The Fleshtones, New York Dolls, The Ramones, The Flamin' Groovies, Sky Saxon, Джин Винсент, The Rolling Stones, T. Rex и The Troggs. За первые 15 лет своего существования группа выпустила 28 синглов, четыре из которых вошли в австралийский Top 30 и лишь один («What’s My Scene?») поднялся в первую пятерку. Гораздо больший интерес группа вызвала в США: альбом Mars Needs Guitars! стал в 1985 году хитом колледж-радио, а синглы «Come Anytime» (1989) и «Miss Freelove '69» (1991) поднимались до # 1 и 3 (соответственно) в списке Billboard Modern Rock. Hoodoo Gurus также неоднократно входили в Top 10 UK Indie Charts. Группа распалась в 1998 году, но реформировалась дважды: сначала — в 2003 году, затем в 2007 году, когда провела гастроли по США, выступив на фестивале South By Southwest (SXSW) Music Festival (Остин, Техас) и в Европе (включая Azkena Festival в Испании). Затем последовало большое турне по Австралии «Clash of the Titans» — с The Stems и Radio Birdman. Гастрольно-фестивальная деятельность Hoodoo Gurus продолжилась в 2008—2009 годах (Apollo Bay Music Festival, Splendour in the Grass, Meredith Music Festival и др.). В июне 2008 года газета The Age в рамках празднования «50-летия австралийского рок-н-ролла» (отсчитываемого с момента выпуска сингла «Wild One» Джонни О’Кифа) составила список Top 50 Australian Albums, в котором «Stoneage Romeo» оказался на #5. Hoodoo Gurus вошли в историю как «одна из самых изобретательных, умных и волнующих групп в истории австралийского рока», — что и было отмечено на церемонии введения Hoodoo Gurus в ARIA Hall Of Fame («Зал славы Австралийской звукозаписывающей ассоциации») 2007 года.

- For two and a half decades the Hoodoo Gurus have consistently been one of the most inventive, lyrically smart and exciting rock'n'roll bands Australia has ever produced... along the way they've influenced an entire generation of bands which explains why the likes of You Am I, The Living End, Dallas Crane, Grinspoon and many others queued up a few years back to pay tribute to the band's 1984 debut album, ''Stoneage Romeos'
