During their early 80’s run\, they sold a collective total of 20 million copies of their first three albums (Lost in Love\, The One That You Love\, Now & Forever) and the 1983 Greatest Hits collection and achieved multi-million radio plays for five of their hits\, including “Sweet Dreams” and the Jim Steinman-penned “Making Love Out of Nothing At All.” In 2010\, the year Air Supply released their last studio album Mumbo Jumbo\, Graham was honored with a BMI Million-Air Certificate recognizing three million performances of “All Out of Love.” \n“When it comes to our longevity\, it’s sometimes hard to think about it\, but Russell and I do often\, usually while we’re traveling between cities\,” says Graham. “You can never imagine being in a band or being an artist for that long\, so it’s not easy to wrap your thoughts around it. When we started having some success\, we thought we’d be around for a few years. Then as the years roll by\, all of a sudden we’re at a half century since we met and people still enjoy hearing our songs and seeing us perform them. \n“If I could pinpoint the reason\,” he adds\, “it’s because our music has never really been in style but it also never goes out of style. We’ve never followed any trends or been fashionable\, but heartfelt love songs always seem to endure. And beyond simply making great records\, we love hearing from fans around the world\, particularly after our shows\, saying things like\, ‘God you have no idea what this song means to me or how it saved me from this or that.’ Having been a songwriter for over 64 years now\, it’s particularly gratifying to hear that those songs I’ve written still resonate like that.” \nThe release of the album comes seven months after Graham and Russell celebrated a half century since meeting as chorus members of the Australian touring company of Jesus Christ Superstar in a most extraordinary way – headlining a sold-out show at Carnegie Hall on their actual 50th anniversary date. \nThe delirious fans in NYC lucky enough to attend their remarkable 5\,560th show at Carnegie Hall might not have been aware of just how rare a feat it was\, considering how resistant the powers that be often are to having pop-rockers play in a venue dominated by classical performances. With this concert\, Air Supply rightfully joined a rarefied list of rock greats to have played the hallowed Hall\, including The Rolling Stones\, The Beach Boys\, Chicago\, Led Zeppelin\, Pink Floyd and Graham and Russell’s chief influences\, The Beatles. This was a dream come true for the duo who both saw The Beatles perform in 1964 at different venues. \nWhile most of the duo’s albums have been produced by Graham\, the singer/songwriter was delighted to work this time with Grammy-nominated Canadian producer Brian Howes\, a two time Juno Award\, Dove Award and multiple BMI Award winner whose star-studded career includes recordings by the rock bands Skillet\, Puddle of Mudd\, Nickelback\, Hedley and Simple Plan and tracks by American Idol greats Daughtry and David Cook. \nA Matter of Time took a full two years to come together from inception to completed production for several reasons – Air Supply’s relentless ongoing 130 date U.S. and international annual tour schedule and Howes’ insistence\, even in this digital age\, that all of Graham and Russell’s vocals be recorded at his studio in Courtenay\, Canada\, an island off the coast of British Columbia\, requiring several trips. \nThe duo also appreciated the opportunity to record the tracks old school\, live in the studio with their band (drummer Pavel Valdman\, lead guitarist Aaron McLain\, keyboardist Mirko Tessandori and bassist Doug Gild)\, much the way Graham and Russell did in the early days\, when he and Russell recorded their first albums in Australia\, starting with their self-titled Top 20 Australian debut. In line with the possibility that A Matter of Time may be Air Supply’s final studio album (stay tuned!)\, Graham and Russell wanted the artwork to be special and sought out the talents of legendary Australian sculptor and painter Brett-Livingstone Strong to create the eye-popping\, psychedelic time traveling artwork for the album\, which includes an image of Air Supply circa 1981 amidst aliens\, faeries\, butterflies dinosaurs and cat-driven spaceships\, among other colorful “easter eggs.” \n“Brian is a great producer to work with\, and we loved that he was always open to suggestions\,” Russell Hitchcock says. “This creative partnership between myself\, Graham and Brian led to a very mature album with great songs. Graham brings a different perspective on life to these tunes. When I sing\, I think of different colors and there are so many that inspire me on A Matter of Time. Stylistically\, I love the fact that there’s a great variance from track to track. I think the songs aren’t just ‘I love you and you love me’ and a chorus but lyrically very deep and thought provoking. I’m glad we’re releasing the album on vinyl so that fans can have a deeper appreciation for Graham’s storytelling as they listen.” \nGraham adds\, “Most artists recording tracks and albums now record one element at a time\, then replace everything until it sounds good. “We appreciated the opportunity to create A Matter of Time live. There’s a certain spirit you get when that happens\, and over the course of running through a dozen songs\, if you’re patient\, incredible sweet spots come that you couldn’t capture using a computer recording each musician separately. Our way is more fun and interactive\, leading to trying out different notes\, chords and overall approaches and ironing out the wrinkles. We ended up here with magic and when you’ve got that\, you end up smiling!” \nAir Supply audiences have already been smiling widely as the band performs the album’s symphonic\, high spirited lead single “Wrap My Arms Around You” amidst their cavalcade of hits. Graham wrote the song during the pandemic\, reflecting on the importance of physical human connection and a time when people would once again be able to hug their friends and loved ones without fear. Another of the duo’s favorites on the album is the soulful\, haunting power ballad “If Only\,” which features a mellotron element that pays subtle homage to the Fab Four’s “Strawberry Fields Forever.” \nOther standouts include the raunchy\, freewheeling Stones-influenced rocker “I Want Your Love\,” the anthemic\, hard-driving “Son of the Father” (from A Wall Apart\, Graham’s stage musical about the Berlin Wall) and the passionate ballad “I Say A Prayer\,” featuring Kennadi Dodds\, a 22 year old\, Utah-based singer/songwriter\, who also contributed lyrics to the song. \n“If someone had told us back in 1976 when we recorded our first album we would still be around\, performing and recording stronger than ever\, we would have told them they were insane\,” Russell says. “These wonderful recent developments – playing the Hollywood Bowl and Carnegie Hall\, the biopic\, the Hollywood Walk of Fame – feel like a great stamp of approval from the media. But more importantly\, they affirm the validity and continued relevance of our music. \n“Love songs like ours will never go out of style because\, when you think about it\, at some point in everyone’s life\, they’re falling in love\, getting married\, falling out of love or missing their love\,” he adds. “Love is that constant that makes the world go round\, and we’ve been sharing our songs about all those things with four generations now. I’ve said it a million times\, the reason we keep playing is because of the songs. If you don’t have a song\, you have nothing – and we’re excited now to share the new ones as we are to keep playing the classics.” \nPlan Your Visit to view the seating chart\, see nearby restaurants and hotels.\n\n\n\nParking Info:\nThe Alabama Theatre is not responsible for parking and does not provide any free parking.\nParking meters are free after 6pm on weekdays and all day on Saturday and Sunday.\nPlease be aware of tow-away zones.

This larger-than-life prehistoric adventure will feature some of the world’s biggest and most scientifically accurate robotic dinosaurs roaming throughout the Zoo grounds. \nAs part of this immersive experience\, guests can also enjoy the new VR movie\, Dinosaur: Evolution\, transporting audiences 65 million years into the past. \n       \nA Prehistoric Adventure Awaits \nTravel back in time and encounter roaring\, breathing giants scattered throughout the Zoo to create an authentic dinosaur safari feel. Highlights include: \n\nTwenty three dinos including one of the tallest dinosaurs ever created — a Brachiosaurus standing 35 feet high; a 40-foot-long Tyrannosaurus rex alongside its baby; and a Triceratops the size of a food truck.\nTwo dinosaur nests – one with three Oviraptor babies and another with five Maiasaura hatchings.\nAn 8 ft. by 8 ft. dig pit featuring a variety of dinosaur fossils.\nA massive Tyrannosaurus rex photo op area in the Zoo’s Plaza\n\n“The dinosaurs are scattered throughout your Birmingham Zoo to give an authentic dinosaur safari feel as guests enjoy their visit\,” said Chris Pfefferkorn\, President and CEO of the Birmingham Zoo. “The Dino Safari experience features 23 full-sized dinosaurs uniquely created under direct scientific supervision. Unlike other robots\, these dinosaurs move\, breathe\, and roar\, appealing to guests of all ages. Dino Safari and the Dinosaur VR film are entertaining while teaching important conservation messages.” \nDino Safari was created by world-renowned dinosaur authority Don Lessem\, founder of Dino Don\, Inc.\, and advisor to Steven Spielberg on Jurassic Park. Lessem has led excavations and reconstructions of some of the world’s largest meat-eating and plant-eating dinosaurs from Patagonia. \n“We have gone to great lengths to ensure the most accurate dinosaur robots in the world\, and dinosaur fans love them\,” said Lessem. \nDino Safari is included with regular Zoo admission. \n  \nNew VR Experience: Dinosaur: Evolution \nResponding to the growing demand for immersive experiences\, Dinosaur: Evolution expands the reach of Immotion in museums\, science centers\, zoos\, and aquariums worldwide. The movie is available at the zoo for an additional charge. \nSet deep in the Hell Creek Formation at the end of the Cretaceous Period\, the film takes viewers on a breathtaking journey through the rise—and dramatic fall—of Earth’s most legendary creatures. Featuring scientifically grounded storytelling and innovative visuals\, the experience blends education with spectacle. \n“Our goal with Dinosaur: Evolution goes beyond delivering an unforgettable experience\,” said Rod Findley\, President & CEO of Immotion. “We’re blending science and spectacle to create engaging content that supports the missions of science museums and centers—where curiosity meets credibility.” \nThe VR experience was created in collaboration with leading paleontologists\, including Phillip Manning (University of Manchester; Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi)\, who also narrates the film. From feathered Dakota raptors to towering Tyrannosaurus rex\, every detail reflects the latest scientific research. \nMore than just a visual thrill\, Dinosaur: Evolution encourages reflection on evolution\, extinction\, and humanity’s connection to life on Earth—drawing timely parallels to modern climate challenges. You may view the trailer here: https://vimeo.com/1097701935 \nImmotion’s award-winning VR experiences are now featured in more than 125 locations worldwide. \nDino Safari will run from March 4 to November 1 and is included in the price of admission to your Birmingham Zoo when it is open. Closed Mondays and Tuesday except for major holidays. \n     \nADOPT-A-DINO  \nJoin in the fun: Adopt-A-Dinosaur today and display your name on “your” dino for the run of the exhibit!
