Frog Hollow was formed in the late 60s with John Crothers on guitar, Barry Falkner on bass (ex The Statics), Kevin Kahler on keyboards and Greg Sheehan on drums. The band was together for five years and played lots of dances around the Kingsgrove/Strathfield areas. The band had a 12 month residency at the Manly Vale Hotel and did two cruises around the Pacific and quite a number of TV appearances. In 1970 they recorded the soundtrack music for the surf film Over Under Sideways Down directed by Ken Anderson. The tracks were released on an EP on the Du Monde label.
Another single ”Go Away/Send Me Back To Mama” was released the following year. After the demise of Frog Hollow Greg Sheehan joined Blackfeather, Duck and McKenzie Theory. Barry Falkner became Marketing Manager of Wizard Records and worked with many artists including Marcia Hines, Hush, Doug Parkinson, Party Boys and Benjamin Hugg who later joined Barry’s band Terra Firma as lead vocalist. Kevin Kahler became a musical director (shows and club performances) and a senior executive at 2KY. John Crothers joined the priesthood.
