BRISBANE musicians unite to celebrate and promote the sounds of Brisbane. On Sunday, October 30 the diversity of the Brisbane music scene will be showcased through an all ages afternoon gig at The Legions Club in Fortitude Valley as part of a showcase for the Brisbane Sounds #5 compilation album.

Brisbane Sounds is a non-profit, community led advocacy organisation that has been developed to nurture Brisbane’s musical heritage as well as educate, inspire and promote to the world the outstanding diversity and quality of music in the Brisbane music scene.

In 2011, Brisbane Sounds has partnered with Music Industry College to provide the young students of the school an opportunity to develop their publicity, venue, artist and project management skills through working on this project.

To help launch Brisbane Sounds #5, a diverse selection of local acts will present a showcase of Brisbane music with the first announcement of artists featuring Blonde on Blonde, Fushia, Daisie May, Le Cheile and Our Ithaca Creek.

The second announcement of Brisbane artists sees Joel Turner (Ex Australian Idol), The Good Ship and Transvaal Diamond Syndicate along with a youth showcase of music from students at Music Industry College.

Doors open at 12pm, tickets cost $7 plus booking fees and are available through Oztix (Oztix.com.au) or on the door on the day for $10 subject to availability.
