'australian band' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'worry about beats' is the wordplay.
'worry' becomes 'care' (I've seen this before).
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'beats' becomes 'tempi' (I've seen this before).
'care' going around 'tempi' is 'CAT EMPIRE'.

'to' acts as a link.
