Yamaha Music Australia is proud to announce the Main Stage Grant. A brand new initiative, the Main Stage Grant is designed to provide real support to the next generation of Australian musicians by giving them the tools they need to create, record and perform. The grant is open to artists across three categories: bands, singer-songwriters, and music producers, with one artist from each category set to receive $5,000 cash, plus $5,000 worth of Yamaha instruments.
Applications are open now and will close on Saturday 15th November at 10am AEDT. In collaboration with Yamaha Music Australia, a panel of industry experts and tastemakers will review each application to determine the three recipients, set to be announced in early December. For more information on eligibility and how to apply, head to Yamaha Music Australia’s website.
“Main Stage is about giving the next generation of Australian musicians the platform and support they deserve. Whether you’re a band, a songwriter, or a producer, we want to help you take that next big step with real backing. We believe Australia makes the best music, and we want to continue to support you.”
– Mitch Kelly, Yamaha Music Australia
