Show Notes
The Australian music industry is on its knees. Artists and promoters have had gigs and festivals cancelled as a result of the most recent Covid lockdowns.
Reuben Styles, one half of Peking Duk, joins us to talk about the impact on local artists. Many are desperate to get back to what they do best….and to make matters worse, they’re seeing sports venues packed to the rafters.
As a means to make a difference, the famous Australian music family, Alberts, has created Alberts Impact Ventures’ fund to help fund music projects to try to help kick start the sector. We’re joined by investment manager Lisa Fedorenko; and head of strategy Glenn Bartlett to learn what strategies they have, to bring the industry back to life.
