The Fourmyula were a New Zealand rock group formed in 1967 in Upper Hutt. The band initially consisted of Wayne Mason, Martin Hope, Ali Richardson, and Chris Parry, with Carl Evensen joining as lead vocalist in 1968. Their first release, "Come With Me", reached Number two on the charts in August 1968. Over their career, they released fourteen singles, ten of which reached the New Zealand Top 20, and five albums. The Fourmyula won the New Zealand Entertainers of the Year award in 1970. Their best-known song, "Nature", written by Wayne Mason and produced by Peter Dawkins, topped the New Zealand charts in December 1969 and won the APRA Silver Scroll Award that year. In 2010, The Fourmyula reformed to promote The Complete Fourmyula, a 4-CD set including previously unreleased material. They were inducted into the New Zealand Music Hall of Fame at the 2010 APRA Silver Scroll Awards.
