GRANT MCLENNAN FELLOWSHIP 2022
Take your songwriting to the next level! The 2022 Grant McLennan Fellowship applications are now open. Applications close 5pm, Monday 29 August 2022.
Congratulations to MARLOE who will be heading down to Electronic Music Conference (EMC) next week to attend the conference, co-write one-on-one with Akacia and sit down with 120 Publishing to learn about how an emerging artists publishing can be built into an incredibly valuable revenue stream.
MARLOE is a young independent artist who combines splashes of electronica with lush, soaring vocals and beat-driven melodies. Her shimmering indie-pop tracks are the perfect combo of punchy and playful, and take you on an intimate journey of self experience, and ultimate girl-power-moments.
I’m so thankful and excited to be chosen for this opportunity. Super keen to head down to Sydney to learn from and work with so many amazing industry professionals.
MARLOE

WHEN THE SHOW CAN’T GO ON: COVID’S INVISIBLE VICTIMS
The Australian music industry is a delicate ecosystem at risk of total collapse unless it receives critical life support. The success of Australia’s live music industry lies in the people who make the show go on - the technicians, engineers, managers, hiring companies and more - those who are COVID’s invisible victims.
