About Me

November 1999 the debut album Imaginate hit number one on the Australian charts, notched up double platinum sales and featured the top 10 hits "Get Set" and "Everywhere You Go"', along the way snaring a Best New Artist ARIA award. To support the global release of Imaginate, Taxiride toured Australia, America, Japan and Europe.
2001 Taxiride start penning songs in Melbourne and move to Los Angles to work with producer Fred Maher and record at Conway Studios.
July 2002 Taxiride released their second album Garage Mahal. The album delivered the band a consecutive top 5 album and a consecutive platinum plus seller. Garage Mahal featured the top 5 hit single and number 1 radio song of 2002, "Creepin' Up Slowly". As with Imaginate, Garage Mahal was released globally and supported by the band undertaking a hectic promotion and touring schedule through Europe and Japan.
2004 The members of Taxiride write and record their third album Axiomatic at their home studio in Melbourne whilst undertaking a series of live shows across Australia.
In September 2005 Taxiride released their third album Axiomatic to rave reviews. The album features the hit singles Oh Yeah, You Gotta Help Me and What Can I Say.
