AWME, held in November, began in 2008 and has proven to be a great stepping stone for artists to make their mark on the world stage. Perfomers who showcased at last year's event such as Sydney-based soul singer Ngaiire and the huge collective that is Melbourne Ska Orchestra found success overseas in the wake of AWME - both will be performing at Glastonbury later this year among other events.
