Brisbane Sounds & Music Industry College Present
Brisbane Sounds #5 A Celebration of Brisbane Music
Wednesday, September 21, 2011
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 gorgeous surroundings of the heritage listed Old Museum in Bowen Hills 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 with more artists to be announced shortly.
Along with live music, Brisbane Sounds #5 will also feature a youth workshop, barbeque and discussion panels. Classic Brisbane music and music videos will be featured over the course of the day to further add to the community vibe of the event.
Brisbane Sounds is also using funding platform Indiegogo.com to raise funds to take their music industry workshops into schools and further engage young people with Brisbane music. Proceeds from these special pledge packs will be going to youth organisations, Youngcare and Brisbane Youth Service who Brisbane Sounds will be working alongside with on future projects.

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. For more information visit www.brisbanesounds.com
Hot off the heels of the stunning display at the Gold Coast Big Day Out, V Energy Drink is thrilled to announce the return of the V Energy Green Room to Future Music Festival Brisbane.
