SAFE GIGS: Musicians Australia

“This is our opportunity to rebuild the music industry on our terms.”

As restrictions ease, musicians are being asked to play gigs at rock-bottom rates in unsafe working conditions. Let’s get one thing straight: if a venue is opening, and serving drinks and food, they’ll be paying staff and ensuring compliance with Work Health and Safety laws. If they also want to put on gigs, the musicians that play those gigs also deserve to be safe and paid a fair fee.

The ‘SAFE GIGS’ framework launched by Musicians Australia members across the country tonight will ensure that musicians are safe at gigs, and won’t be ripped-off in the process.
