Are you counting out the bands that had their start in NZ, such as Dragon and Crowded House (admittedly i think both had Australian born band members).

Given the original Crowded House line-up is 2/3rds Australian (Seymour and Hester) I think it is fair to claim them as Australian especially when Neil Finn was residing in Australia when they were first formed and dd so for the first five years of the bands existence.

We included Crowded House for that reason, that Seymour and Hester were both Australian.
