Waiting Room are an Australian rock band consisting of lead vocalist and actor Alan Fletcher, guitarist Chris Hawker, singer-songwriter Tommy Rando and drummer Jeff Consi. The band play at a public house called The Elephant and Wheelbarrow in Victoria, Australia.[1] for Neighbours Night to meet fans.[2] The band often tour the United Kingdom, where Fletcher is well-known because of his role in the Australian soap opera Neighbours.[3][4]
They released their debut album In the Waiting Room in 2005. With Fletcher's link to Neighbours, several of their songs have been about Neighbours characters including "Sleeping Alongside Susan"; a cover of Smokie's "Living Next Door to Alice".[5] The song refers to his character's relationship with Izzy Hoyland.
Fletcher toured the United Kingdom in September and October 2009 with the band The X-Rays.[6]
