This afternoon via Radio Adelaide, the South Australian artists, events and venues up for awards in this year’s AU Live Music Awards were revealed. Coming off the back of a huge night of recognition at the South Australian Music Awards this week, we’ve been stoked to have teamed up with Radio Adelaide in bringing the following names to you today!
The awards represent excellence and a general positive impact in the live arena and across the board, the artists, events and establishments up for awards this year are indeed representative of an entertaining and diverse year in local music. For Adelaide in particular, 2015 has seen some great careers kick off and flourish on a national and international level, with the attention being turned more and more to South Australia and the creatives within the city working on some rad projects.
The winners of the 2nd Annual AU Live Music Awards will be announced via Radio Adelaide broadcast on Wednesday, December 9th, with the ceremony itself being held in Sydney on December 9th at the Oxford Art Factory. Stay tuned for the full list of national nominees, coming your way next week!
