Tell us about GH Music. The story of GH Music started much earlier than the five years our store has been open. A true Melbourne musical icon, the building that we now operate from was the original Billy Hyde’s Music shop, which opened in 1962. Over the years this shop has played host to many music greats including Charlie Watts (The Rolling Stones), Don Henley (The Eagles), Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins (Foo Fighters), to name a few.
