Melbourne Music City guide
1 MELBOURNE MUSIC CITY Melbourne is the live music capital of Australia and boasts one of the most dynamic music scenes in the world. It has been the breeding ground for hometown heroes including AC/DC, Nick Cave, Kylie Minogue, Men at Work, The Divinyls, Crowded House, Jet, Airbourne, Paul Kelly, Temper Trap and Cut Copy. You can catch a gig just about anywhere in Melbourne – from laneways to rooftops, bowls clubs, concert halls and pubs. For many of these venues, live music is its primary business, showcasing diverse, original music across rock, pop, roots, jazz, electronic and experimental spectrums. 18-26 NOVEMBER Melburnians are so passionate about their music, that when draconian liquor licensing laws were introduced in small venues in 2010, 20,000 people marched in protest down Swanston Street, where AC/DC filmed its iconic ‘Long Way to the Top’ video clip 34 years earlier. The laws were subsequently changed and the Government has promised to pass legislation to recognise the contribution of live music to society. 9 DAYS 170 INDEPENDENT ACTS 70 CREATIVE EVENTS 40 CURIOUS LOCATIONS 1 MUSIC CITY CUT COPY DJs DJ KRUSH MIDNIGHT JUGGERNAUTS CANYONS HTRK THE GASLAMP KILLER WAX TAILOR DAEDELUS PRIMITIVE CALCULATORS THE RAAH PROJECT A recent report revealed that over 5.4 million attended live music performances in 2009/2010 – that’s more action than the Australian Football League football season. But how do all of these people find the best gigs at the best venues? That’s where Melbourne Music City comes in. SPIRAL STAIRS DEXTER AND MORE While the city is built around an 19th century central grid of main streets, they are intersected by a labyrinth of laneways which house many of the city’s best bars, shops and venues. Music Victoria encourages you music enthusiasts to treat the guide like a treasure map and wander around this amazing city, pop into one of the many dedicated record stores, visit landmarks such as AC/DC Lane and check out the incredible local music and venues we have on offer. PRESENTED BY TICKETS NOW AVAILABLE AT Patrick Donovan (CEO Music Victoria) WWW.MELBOURNE.VIC.GOV.AU/MMW 2 3 Long before Bon Scott, Angus and Malcolm Young and a couple of bagpipers conquered Swanston Street on the back of a flatbed truck, music was a key part of what makes Melbourne great. Melbourne is proud of its crown as Australia’s music capital. With more live music venues than any other Australian city, artists and music lovers have plenty of choice when it comes to gigs, festivals, conferences and industry events celebrating genres ranging from rock, metal and electronica to traditional Indigenous music and folk. Music Victoria’s Melbourne Music City is a great and long-overdue guide for those in search of rare vinyl, on the lookout for a venue or upcoming festival, or trying to navigate their way around the vast and rich tapestry of music in Melbourne. This guide may be focused on Melbourne, but live music in Victoria is a huge asset for the whole state. Every week, Victorian venues host an average of 3,000 gigs and last year 5.4 million people attended live music performances at venues around Melbourne and across Victoria. All those gigs created jobs and economic activity for our state, as well as being a massive drawcard for tourists from around Australia and across the globe. You’ll find it easier to get to see the music you love with Melbourne Music City as your guide. Ted Baillieu MLA (Premier and Minister for the Arts) Arts and culture animate Melbourne, and our live music scene is globally renowned. I’m delighted that our vigorous local music industry is in great shape, hosting gigs all over the city every night of the week. The City of Melbourne has recognised the huge contribution the music industry makes to our city and state by staging Melbourne Music Week. This annual event is not just about putting on a good show – it also provides real support to Melbourne’s live music venues, promoters and businesses. Many in the industry have formed even closer partnerships, buoyed by the passion of Melbourne music-lovers. On stages large and small, Melbourne musicians shape our city’s sounds. Setting us on a path to the stage door, Melbourne Music City is a welcome guide to Australia’s best live music scene.
