Through 28 years and over 1000 gigs together, Melbourne band The Fauves have consistently eschewed excess, expectation and rock’s most insistent clichés; if you need proof, there’s Vanessa Stuart’s fly-on-the-wall rockumentary (The Fauves: 15 Minutes to Rock) to convince you.

At the centre of the band’s sardonic, sometimes contrary sensibility is singing, guitar slinging frontman Andrew Cox, who just happens to be a passionate fan of exercise and healthy eating. Come along and hear Cox wax nutritional about turning his back on rock bacchanalia – and how fitness is sometimes the opposite of fitting in.
