It's looks like Crowded House will be playing together again in the near future as founders Neil Finn and Nick Seymour have confirmed that they plan to release a new studio album later this year, with tour dates expected to follow. The band are already lined up to play Coachella in the US.
Neil Finn added:
After spending most of last year making music and hanging out with my friend Nick Seymour we are now announcing our intention to reform Crowded House with a new record entitled 'Time On Earth'[..]We aim to make the upcoming shows and the new music every bit as vital and spirited as what has come before. We are conscious that Paul Hester was above all a great drummer and we are currently auditioning to find someone special to take that role"
