Performers for this year’s The Age Music Victoria Awards have been announced and include Marlon Williams, Courtney Barnett, Harts, Briggs and The EG Allstars. The 10th Edition of The Age Music Victoria Awards will take place at 170 Russell on 11 November 2015.
A limited release of 300 tickets will be available to the public, so get in quick to celebrate with your favourite musicians.
The event will be co-presented by Triple R 102.7FM and PBS 106.7FM. Two of their finest broadcasters, Chris Gill and Lyndelle Wilkinson, will MC the event and Fee B-Squared will be spinning the tunes between sets.
In a celebration of the diversity of the Victorian contemporary music scene, the night will peak when special guests Ajak Kwai, Ben Salter, Blake Scott (The Peep Tempel), Briggs, Ecca Vandal, Emma Donovan, Iseula Hingano (Blue Eyes Cry) and Olympia, perform a song with The EG Allstars.
For the first time, the Public Awards, which are decided by 80,000 public votes, and The Genre Awards, which are chosen by select expert panels, will be merged in one huge show. The Hall of Fame acts will be celebrated in a separate concert at the Palais Theatre on 20 November 2015.
Last year’s major industry partners Live At Your Local and Bakehouse Studios, are joining the event once again, with $5 from every ticket sold going to Support Act Limited to support musicians in need.
