Documented collaborators

Meet Ivor Hay, the original drummer and a driving force behind The Saints, one of Australia’s most influential early punk and rock bands. Co-founding the group in 1973, Hay contributed not only his percussion but early keyboard and bass work as lineups shifted, helping shape the band’s iconic sound that would influence generations of artists.

The live experience

What reaches the room

From the club floors of Brisbane to stages worldwide, Hay’s rhythmic foundation powered essential releases that defined a era. The Saints’ debut album, (I’m) Stranded, and its follow-ups Eternally Yours and Prehistoric Sounds remain touchstones in Australian rock history, cemented further by later era records such as Paralytic Tonight, Dublin Tomorrow, The Monkey Puzzle, and Casablanca.
