Midnight Oil (also known informally as "The Oils") are an Australian rock band. The group originally performed with the name Farm from 1972 with drummer Rob Hirst, bass guitarist Andrew James and keyboard player/lead guitarist Jim Moginie, before being joined by vocalist Peter Garrett and touring the east coast of Australia in 1975. In late 1976 Farm changed its name to Midnight Oil, by drawing the name out of a hat. The band manager Gary Morris was important to their success as he was able to negotiate favourable contracts with tour promoters and record companies.
