AC/DC: The Thunder from Down Under

In 1973, brothers Angus and Malcolm Young laid the foundation for one of the most influential rock bands of all time in Sydney, Australia. Together with singer Dave Evans, bassist Larry Van Kriedt, and drummer Colin Burgess, they formed AC/DC. The name, inspired by a sewing machine label, would soon stand for electrifying energy on stages worldwide.

Although the initial lineup changed quickly, the band found its iconic voice in 1974 with Bon Scott as the frontman. Together with the Young brothers, Mark Evans on bass, and Phil Rudd on drums, AC/DC began their rise to rock legend status.
