At the end of of Aus Music Month is the pièce de rèsistance, the gig we’ve been building up to – and secretly asking you about – for more than half of our existence: Liberate Pop! The inspiration: this show was research collectively for the past 6 months, exploring who is Naarm considers themselves pop, and what “Pop” is to the human experience.
Unlike genres like punk or hip hop, “trends” are the closest pop gets to its own culture: whatever it is/needs to be in the moment. In a way, pop is intended to be popular, but is deeply personal as well.
We will gather for our final showcase of the year with:
Emilou
Lovy
Tom Nethersole
Xandri
Pop is such an expansive genre and means so many things to so many people – but when artists are just starting out, the struggle has no genre.
Be transported by what local pop artists have to offer. FREE ZINE ON ARRIVAL FOR THE EARLY FEW.
