Single Gun Theory

Single Gun Theory are Jacqui Hunt, Pete Rivett-Carnac and Kath Power. The trio, originally based in Sydney, released their debut album Exorcise This Wasteland in 1987 on the Canadian label Nettwerk Productions. Like Stars In My Hands followed in 1991 and was inspired by Pete and Jacqui's travels through India, Turkey and south-east Asia. Critically acclaimed worldwide, the album established a strong and eclectic fan base, including musician David Byrne and Australian film director Peter Weir.



Single Gun Theory's music then appeared in the feature films The Heartbreak Kid and Reckless Kelly, and they wrote the theme music for ABC-TV's national arts program Review and SBS-TV's Nomad. They contributed music to numerous other film and video projects and also remixed artists for Sony Music Australia and other established labels.



Flow, River Of My Soul followed in 1994, greatly expanding the band's fanbase around the world and earning ARIA nominations for best independent album and best dance album.



In 2000, the band completed the score for the Samantha Lang film, The Monkey's Mask, receiving an APRA nomination for best soundtrack album. Since then, Pete and Kath have both started families, and the band is not actively working together. Pete lives in Singapore with his wife and two young daughters, and is involved in various projects unrelated to Single Gun Theory, including production and co-writing with other artists.
