The Easybeats has seven people listed as members in MusicBrainz. This page presents the membership entries and the roles and years shown there; the list reflects that database as retrieved on 2026-11-06. It is a reference to the recorded member list, not an expanded account of the band or its members.
Former Members
MusicBrainz lists all seven entries as former members, and none has an end date missing from its membership relation. The entries below preserve the roles and years shown in the database.
- Dick Diamonde – bass guitar, 1964–1969
- George Young – guitar, 1964–1969
- Harry Vanda – guitar, background vocals, 1964–1969, 1964–1969
- Snowy Fleet – drums, 1964–1967
- Stevie Wright – lead vocals, 1964–1969
- Tony Cahill – drums, 1967–1969
- Eddy Carter – not listed, years not listed
The list contains seven names, with a membership period recorded for six entries and no role or years listed for one. The two dates shown for Harry Vanda are retained as they appear in the MusicBrainz entry. The entries are grouped here under Former Members because MusicBrainz lists the band as ended and records no member without an end date. That database status is the basis for this page’s headings; it is not a reason to supply additional membership details.
Line-up Timeline
This table gives the same seven entries in a compact form. Each row corresponds to one member in MusicBrainz, and the role and years columns reproduce the information recorded for that entry. A missing item is left as not listed, rather than treated as evidence for a different date or role.
| Member | Role | Years |
|---|---|---|
| Dick Diamonde | bass guitar | 1964–1969 |
| George Young | guitar | 1964–1969 |
| Harry Vanda | guitar, background vocals | 1964–1969, 1964–1969 |
| Snowy Fleet | drums | 1964–1967 |
| Stevie Wright | lead vocals | 1964–1969 |
| Tony Cahill | drums | 1967–1969 |
| Eddy Carter | not listed | years not listed |
The table is a second view of the member list, not a separate roster. In particular, the names and entry count match the list above, and the two date values for Harry Vanda have not been collapsed into one. The years recorded for each person should be read as the years shown in MusicBrainz. Where the database has no value, this page does not estimate one.
How This List Was Compiled
The membership names, roles, and years come from the “member of band” relations on the MusicBrainz page for The Easybeats: MusicBrainz. The page was retrieved on 2026-11-06, and this list reflects that database. MusicBrainz lists seven people with a “member of band” relation and zero without an end date. Touring and session players are not included in this list.
The MusicBrainz page identifies The Easybeats as from Australia, gives an active period of 1964–1969, and lists the band status as ended, with no current line-up. Those details provide context for the former-member heading, but they do not change the seven individual entries. Wikipedia has an article titled The Easybeats; the membership list on this page is based on MusicBrainz. Where MusicBrainz does not list a role or a year, it is not possible to provide that detail from this source. MusicBrainz does not list it.
For additional catalogue context, MusicBrainz lists these studio albums: Easy (1965), It’s 2 Easy (1966), Volume 3 (1966), Friday on My Mind (1967), Vigil (1968), and Friends (1970). The album list is separate from the membership relations and does not add or remove anyone from the seven names above. The band’s active period and the years attached to individual member relations are also shown as separate database details; this page does not infer a different timeline from them.
