Helmed by staple Melbourne music venue The Corner Hotel, the Corner Awards are back for another year of championing Australian musicians doing bold things in their field.
Past recipients of the awards have included certified legends Sampa The Great (2016) and Cable Ties (2017), who each received a headline show at The Corner, as well as a stack of other career-boosting goodies including limited edition 7” pressings, artwork, advertising and merch packages, and a cool $2,000 cash prize.
Compiled by a brains-trust of Australian music industry heavyweights, the 2018 Corner Award nominees include the likes of Baker Boy, Alice Skye, Odette, Haiku Hands, Jess Locke, Hatchie, Didirri, Miss Blanks, Amyl & The Sniffers, Fraser A. Gorman, and No Mono. A shortlist of nominees will be announced in the coming weeks.
