If you live in Naarm and are free on the morning of Friday October 25, please join me for the first ever live recording of Why Make Music!  I'll be talking to local duo SHOUSE about their commitment to communitas and collective joy, and their surreal transition into EDM superstars. This event is in collaboration with Breakfast Club, and Francesca Gonzales will be helping to facilitate some discussion groups on the day so we can get to know each other better.

Tickets are limited, and it is a very intimate event, please register below:

Jen Cloher is a song-writer and performer living on unceded Wurundjeri land in Naarm/Melbourne.  Over the course of five albums, Jen has established themselves as an incisive songwriter, dynamic performer & outspoken advocate across a wide range of issues.

Many Australian musicians would think of Jen as a mentor, from many years steering the indie label Milk! Records and faciliatiing DIY workshops for selg-managed artists. Jen has won the acclaim of their peers, toured the world, and in recent years been immersed in a personal journey of discovery, retracing their matrilneal Maori heritage.

A few weeks ago, Jen generously dropped a Google Doc into the world called the “DIY Releasing Music Handbook.” It's a free handbook of knowledge that provides practical advice on releasing music, but also challenges artists to think about why they are releasing music, not just how.  Seems like perfect timing to have a chat with Jen for this podcast.

This podcast was recorded on Wurundjeri land in October 2024.
