UNIFIED Music Group

Thank you to the team at All About Music for inviting me to speak at this year’s conference. The growth in India’s streaming market right now is undeniable, with over 1 trillion on-demand music streams in 2023, and according to data provided by Luminate, is now predicted to become the world’s largest music streaming territory by volume by the end of this year. Representing Australian talent and exporting into markets such as India will continue to a be focus for me, and I’m excited to head to Mumbai in August and to talk about how we are continuing to invest in the careers of artists.

We're looking for an experienced People & Culture Coordinator! If you have a passion for improving team member experience and fostering a positive workplace atmosphere, we would love to hear from you! Please click the following link to learn more and apply: https://lnkd.in/gP7myhZ4

Last night The Rions played the final leg of their completely sold out Australian ‘Sweet Cocoons Tour’ at the Metro Theatre in Sydney, and I was lucky enough to see this high energy show at Melbourne’s 170 Russell….twice!   Each night, 1100 people packed into the Russell street night club where fans sang every song at the top of their lungs, right back at the 20 year olds hailing from Sydney’s Northern Beaches.    The Rions’ success did not happen overnight. UNIFIED signed the band to a management agreement back in 2020 and since then, the band has won Triple J - ABC’s prestigious Unearthed High competition, posted multiple songs in the Hottest 100, and toured non-stop in and around high school schedules.   Now with school behind them, there is nothing but excitement about the future for this promising young band. If their new single ‘Sweet Cocoon’ (released via Community Music) is any insight into what’s to come over the next year, then you can expect big things.   UNIFIED works every day to invest in talent and build careers. Whilst it’s never been easy to make it in the music industry, The Rions are proof that anything is possible and I’m excited to be a part of their continued success as they head off on their European tour from August.    Huge congrats to Steve de Wilde based in our UNIFIED Music Group Sydney office, who has managed the band since 2020 and been there every step of the way.
