New body formed to make Australia a ‘music powerhouse’

The new federal government agency Music Australia opens its door on Thursday with the aim of making Australian a hit-making music capital of the world.

Crowd-pulling artists Gordi, Mama Kin and Fred Leone will lead a new body charged by the Albanese government with making Australia the commercial hit-making music capital of the world.

With new opportunities for songwriters, new stages and regional, national and international touring, Australia could become a music powerhouse, in the league of Britain, United States, and Sweden, said Dean Ormston, chief executive of APRA AMCOS, representing the rights of Australian songwriters, composers and publishers.“There are three countries in the world in that are net exporters of music and Australia could be the fourth. We are setting our sights high for the next ten years,” he said.

Arts minister Tony Burke said Music Australia would deliver what the industry needed to grow and realise its potential, at home and internationally.
