Satellite Spies was a New Zealand band formed in 1984 by Deane Sutherland and Mark Loveys.[1] The group enjoyed some success with "Destiny in Motion" (1985) which charted at #14,[2] and in the 1985 New Zealand Music Awards were voted Most Promising Group, with Loveys as awarded Most Promising Male Vocalist.[1][3] They supported Dire Straits during their 1986 tour of New Zealand.[4]
Since a split in 1987, rights to the name have been disputed[1] and at times there have been two bands calling themselves Satellite Spies. One of these, led by Deane Sutherland, had a 1994 hit with "It Must Be Love", which reached #9 in the New Zealand Top 40
