ARIA Awards

“If I can make an album about a roach running away from God and it can be nominated for seven ARIAs... That's a good sign.”

“Music has the power to bring people together, and it’s an honour to be a part of an event that celebrates the incredible talent within Australia’s music industry.”

Genesis Owusu leads the pack with a head-spinning SEVEN nominations.

Rüfüs Du Sol lead all nominees for the 2022 ARIA Awards, with the globe-conquering dance act receiving seven nominations to stand out from a diverse and talented pool of nominees.

"It's heavy and it's pointy!"

The ARIA Awards are all about celebrating our amazing pool of musicians. And as Guy Sebastian puts it, they're a chance to "celebrate how diverse and unique the talent is in Australia". Here we quiz Sebastian and fellow nominees, Dean Lewis, Danzal Baker, aka Baker Boy, and Thelma Plum, to find out about their ARIA experiences.

"It has been a brilliant year for Australian music."

"“We’re thrilled to welcome back the ARIA Awards on our screens for 2019, and champion some incredible Australian music in the process."

"Maybe the broad range of genres and accessibility of music has increased the appeal to everyone, or maybe we’re just growing up as a culture."

As it happens!
