In less than three weeks, the Australian and international music industries will meet for one of BIGSOUND’s most ambitious gatherings to date, celebrating 25 years of music discovery and long-term creative connections.
With all cylinders fired up and hurtling towards Fortitude Valley this September 1-4, BIGSOUND is excited to share the full professional development & hubs program – available online now. Plus a slew of heavy hitting industry names and unmissable panels, workshops and events that are set to take place across the multi-day roll out.
Leading this final round of special guests is BIGSOUND veteran, Australian songwriting icon PAUL KELLY, who will appear in conversation with renowned ABC journalist Sarah Kanowski for a discussion that unpacks the importance of the songwriter and songwriting in shaping our music culture. Presented in conjunction with APRA AMCOS and in celebration of 100 years of Australian songwriting, the opportunity to see one of the country’s most revered and eminent musicians speaking to his practice and the way words can shape a nation’s sound, is unmissable.
The time to start planning is now – check out the full BIGSOUND program lineup via bigsound.org.au.
