Live Music Australia - Round 6

The Live Music Australia program aims to revive business ventures in local suburbs, towns and regions across the country, building capacity for a sustainable live music scene with strong community roots, in all parts of Australia. The focus of the program is on small to medium venues that support high quality original Australian live music that is professionally staged. Proposals should demonstrate that activities will provide ongoing benefits to the Australian music sector.

Live Music Australia responds to all five pillars which shape Revive comprising First Nations First, A Place for Every Story, Centrality of the Artist, Strong Cultural Infrastructure and Engaging the Audience.

The objectives of the program are:

• to support the development, growth and innovation of Australian contemporary live music by increasing performance opportunities for original contemporary music by Australian artists
• to support a sustainable venue-based live music industry by building professional capacity within venues, and growing and building audiences
• to support partnerships, collaboration and networks across the Australian live music industry
