We're giving the gig guide a few more weeks
We're moving the shutdown date to the 13th of July. We still don't have any answers, but we want to explore how the organisation's work can live on.

Welcome to SydneyMusic!
This site exists to promote the community that music creates, with a local focus on Sydney, Australia.
At its heart is a simple, no-nonsense gig guide that does exactly what it says on the tin. We’ll also be publishing the occasional bit of writing, including commentary on cultural trends, music reviews, opinion pieces, and round-ups from contributing writers. We also have a Discord, to help foster connections, again in the hope that it will make it easier to find Sydney’s music community and find your place in it.

We have a Discord (online chat server), so we can have a more dynamic and discussion-oriented place for Sydney's music community to meet. It's about as Web 2.0 as it gets around here.
