Just released: our first-ever interactive "time capsule" documenting the 5,770 gigs we listed in 2024. It features some stats we thought were interesting, a map illustrating where live music happened, and a big deep dive into the data we collect. Let us know what you think!

I LOVE TO SEE INDIE PUBS GROW!

Couple of quick snaps from last night's music trivia fundraiser at the Petersham Bowling Club.

Our music trivia fundraiser saw a packed-out Petersham Bowlo and was a huge success! Thanks to everyone that came, competed for the crown and did their bit to help us out. We raised $3800 for the organisation! Cheers @adamlewis.bsky.social + @domalessio.com for pulling this amazing event together

So psyched for our @sydneymusic.net fundraiser music trivia tonight hosted by @domalessio.com and @adamlewis.bsky.social at the PBC There's literally no reason for me to be posting online about it - it's super sold out and if you don't have tickets you can't come. But I'm super excited about it!
