INXS Kicks Out Fortune
Australian band INXS had refused to continue any co-operation with it’s vocalist Jason Dean Bennison (J.D. Fortune), said ContactMusic. A thirty-five years old Canadian singer is now not just without any job, but also without a house, hence he is living in his own car. Pretty bad situation for someone who was seriously high in popularity during the last few years. Bennison began to work with INXS in 2005 by winning a music contest which was organised by the band members. Casting was very tough and selective, so right after getting in Bennison promised a lot of hope and fortunes. His material life before this contest was as bad as right now – he lived in his car. The band had decided to kick him out right after they’ve finished their twenty three months of constant touring. As he told the press, the group thanked him for his efforts, but halted any further co-working in the future. The real problem is laying in Bennison’s drug habits, which continued throughout the last four years including the last tour. Music business is like any other business – you don’t do your job, and things go down quite fast.
INXS was founded in Sydney in the late 1970’s, and during their quite long music career they’ve released eleven studio albums. The last one - “Switch” came out in 2005.
