The Hang-Up (Synopsis)
The Stars that never were – or were they!
Is this a true story, could be, could be in part the Michael Hutchence story or the rise of The Divinyls or ACDC. But it isn’t!
Set in the mid 1970’s The Hang-Up is the fictional journey of a Aussie music icon that never let fame get in the way of reality. And reality for Jordie was the love of his life, Jess, and the music they made together. The Hang-Up is a love story, an adventure and a tragedy rolled into one. Told from Jordie’s perspective The Hang-Up takes the reader into a world most could only dream of inhabiting, from the creation of the songs to the recording studio and then onto the stages of some of the world’s most iconic venues. The Hang-Up will make you smile one minute and bring a tear to your eye the next. It will give you a front row seats in the life of a rock star, an invitation to the wedding that only someone as creative as Jordie could dream up and all the while you’ll be right there beside Jordie and Jess writing, recording and performing the songs and living the highs and the lows of life as popular music stars.
