The legend goes that Andy 'Falko' Falkous always tours Australia in January so he can watch The Ashes and get paid for it. It's a pretty genius plan, you've got to admit. The new mclusky album 'the world is still here and so are we' is out May 9.

About this guide

This guide is as simple as we can practically get away with. We’ll include some occasional commentary (feel free to submit your own!) to help give you context on what can be a dizzyingly complex network of musicians, collectives, communities, and spaces, or just make sure you don’t miss out on catching your next favourite act.

Got a gig you think should be listed here? Send our friendly team of Gig Researchers an email!

Artists, managers, promoters, and venues:
Self-promo is fine — we love it when you let us know what you’ve got going on! But we won’t publish your marketing/social copy verbatim or give you special consideration in the guide. We generally don’t list cover/tribute bands or background-music sets at hospitality venues. All listings are at our own discretion. We will also graciously refuse any offer of door spots for shows where we can buy tickets.

Affiliate disclosure:
To keep SydneyMusic.net running, we’re testing out affiliate links programs with several ticketing providers. This means we may receive a little bit of money if you click through and buy tickets to a gig via the links here in the guide. We’re not tracking you, we still don’t have ads or cookies, and nothing else about our gig guide changes – we will never base any decisions about which gigs we highlight or list on whether they’re ticketed through a certain provider or not. And we’re still committed to total transparency. We’re just getting a little back for the clicks we send to big and medium ticketing companies – and buying tickets to shows at all levels is still one of the best ways to support our whole community.

For more about how affiliate links work, or any other questions, feedback, and ideas about how to keep SydneyMusic sustainable, send us a message via e-mail or @sydneymusicdotnet on Instagram, or join our Discord.
