Finalists at the APRA AMCOS Art Music Awards!

We are delighted to be a finalist in the APRA AMCOS Art Music Awards alongside so many other brilliant artists and groups! Our 2022-23 concert series has been nominated in the ‘Excellence in Experimental Music Practice’ category.

Not only this, but two works we presented in the last year have also been nominated! Liam Mulligan’s audio-haptic piece ‘TacTable’ and Rebecca Bracewell’s electronics-and-hearing-aid work ‘Spirals’ are both finalists in the ‘Work of the Year: Electroacoustic/Sound Art’ category. Congratulations to both, as well as all of the other nominees for their incredible achievements! Read more.

This Friday consider supporting Australian living music via Bandcamp

“To raise even more awareness around the pandemic’s impact on musicians everywhere, we’re waiving our revenue share on sales this Friday, March 20 (from midnight to midnight Pacific Time), and rallying the Bandcamp community to put much needed money directly into artists’ pockets.”

— bandcamp

Concert cancellations and postponements are immensely impacting our community. This Friday is a great time to consider supporting artists during by purchasing music available via Bandcamp. We’ve collated a list of Australian music makers with releases available via Bandcamp (including many who have been a part of BackStage Music) to help you find something new or revisit a favourite.

Explore this list of living music and let us know in the comments below what you’re listening to or what we’ve missed!

We are committed to coming up with creative solutions for people in the new music scene to stay connected - subscribe to our blog (see below) to be updated.
