INXS (a phonetic play on "in excess") were an Australian rock band, formed as the Farriss Brothers in 1977 in Sydney, New South Wales.

The founding members were bassist Garry Gary Beers, main composer and keyboardist Andrew Farriss, drummer Jon Farriss, guitarist Tim Farriss, lead singer and main lyricist Michael Hutchence, and guitarist and saxophonist Kirk Pengilly.

For 20 years, INXS was fronted by Hutchence, whose magnetic stage presence made him the focal point of the band.

Initially known for their new wave/pop style, the band later developed a harder pub rock style that included funk and dance elements.
