Sebastian Hardie, an Australian symphonic rock band, formed in Sydney in 1967 as Sebastian Hardie Blues Band and originally included Graham Ford on lead guitar and Neil Williamson on organ, among others. They initially played R&B and soul covers but later shifted to a pop-oriented sound. In 1973, the band evolved into a progressive rock style, releasing their first single "All Right Now" in September of that year. By October 1973, Ford had left the band, replaced by Mario Millo on lead guitar. Sebastian Hardie's debut album Four Moments was released in August 1975 and peaked at number 12 on the National albums chart, achieving gold status with 35,000 copies sold. Their second album Windchase was released in 1976 but did not achieve significant chart success. Internal disagreements led to the band's disbandment in 1977. The band reunited several times for performances and released Blueprint in 2011.
