The Wrights were a one-off Australian
"supergroup". They consisted of Nic Cester (Jet), Bernard Fanning
(Powderfinger), Phil Jamieson ( Grinspoon), Kram (Spiderbait), Chris Cheney
(The Living End), Davey Lane ( You Am I and The Pictures) and Pat Bourke (Dallas
Crane). They are named after Australian music legend and former Easybeats
frontman Stevie Wright. Their first and only single was a cover version of
Stevie Wright's song "Evie" (7243 8 68837 2 8), an 11 minute song
consisting of three parts. "Evie (Pt. 1)" was first performed at the
Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) awards in 2004. They performed
the whole trilogy live for the first time at the Sydney Cricket Ground as part
of WaveAid, and it was released as a single in February 2005. "Evie (Pt.
1)" featured Nic Cester as the vocalist, while Pts. 2 and 3 featured
vocalists Bernard Fanning of Powderfinger and Phil Jamieson of Grinspoon. The
profits for the single were donated to Stevie Wright and the Salvation Army to
improve drug and alcohol rehabilitation, as well as the International Red Cross
and Red Crescent Movement for the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami. "Evie"
