Air Supply revealed on its website that it is celebrating its 50th anniversary in May 2025, with a logo proclaiming “EST. 1975.” It’s thinking of organizing a Caribbean cruise to celebrate the anniversary. So, it has asked fans if they would prefer a four-day or seven-day cruise. 

The inquiry includes a photograph of Royal Caribbean Group’s  (RCL)  Voyager of the Seas, which could be the ship the band plans to charter for the cruise.

“We are just in the initial stages but would love to hear from you,” a message on the website said.

Singers Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock met in 1975 while rehearsing for an Australian production of “Jesus Christ Superstar” in Sidney, according to their website.

The Australian soft rock singing duo became friends and began performing in coffee bars and pizza parlors before recording their first single for CBS Records, “Love and Other Bruises,” which did well on the charts. 

After the “Jesus Christ Superstar” production ended in 1976, the duo opened for Rod Stewart in Australia and continued with Rockin’ Rod’s North American tour in 1977. After returning from the tour, Graham Russell wrote two of the duo’s biggest hits, “Lost in Love” and ‘All Out of Love,” which both became chart-toppers in 1980 after Arista Records signed the singers to a record deal.
