Culture Club: Groundswell – Celebrating Culture through Music

Culture Club: Groundswell will be a night of insights, inspiration and connection with Adelaide’s arts and cultural community. Join us for a live performance from DEM MOB and a panel discussion about community, culture and local and global opportunities this Good Music Month with music sector leaders and First Nations artists.

Adelaide is Australia's only UNESCO City of Music with proud live music heritage in our pubs, clubs and other venues, and a magnet city for world-class festivals and events. South Australian musicians are increasingly performing on global stages, so what makes our voices so sought after, and how are these connections made?

Facilitated by Nancy Bates (Barkindji song woman) and featuring panellists; Grayson Rotumah (Centre for Aboriginal Studies in Music - CASM), Annette Tripodi (WOMADelaide), Joe Hay (Adelaide City of Music), Emily Tulloch (Nexus Arts) and Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands hip hop band, DEM MOB - who will share their experience of performing at international showcase event, Primavera Pro in Spain. 

This is a free, all ages event.
