You've seen those viral Instagram projects right? Projects that tell you what goat suits your name or seeing meme pages dedicated to one artist only. How about a project that only features Australian album covers stylised as an old receipt?

This one really caught my eye, and apparently quite a few others - it's really picking up steam. I chatted to the wizard behind the 'Aus Album Receipts' project, Tim Lambert, about exploring super-niche projects, the power of community, and saying yes to opportunities (don't listen to imposter syndrome!).

It's no joke that COVID-19 has hit the music industry really hard. But what are the bounds of its destruction? Dr Catherine Strong of RMIT University is working with theVMDO and Victorian Government to find out via the 'COVID-19 Music Industry Impacts Survey'. Aaaand also see what other underlying issues in the music industry can be uncovered.

I had a great in-depth conversation with the good Dr about the big intervention our music industry needs, Jaguar Jonze, and young people overcoming inequality.

Dr Catherine Strong - COVID-19 Music Industry Impacts Survey | freestival

Cindy, the Event Director for Airwaves Festival(one of Australia's first successful drive-in festivals during a pandemic) is an absolute ideas machine. Writing the plan for Airwaves down on the back of a cereal box during a plane flight, Cindy went on to organise an event that could challenge big-name festivals in line-up, theme, and smooth operation.

She joined me on freestival to detail how Airwaves came together, the joy in seeing hundreds of people decked out in space-themed costumes, and how volunteering is one of the best ways to support live music events (especially for those with limited funds available).
