Ausmusic T-Shirt Day is Just 10 Days Away!

Ausmusic T-Shirt Day is fast approaching, and it’s more important this year than ever before. More than just a chance to rep your favourite band, Ausmusic T-Shirt Day raises vital funds for Support Act. These guys have been there long before the pandemic assisting musicians, crew, industry workers, and their families doing it tough. As you might imagine with so many gig cancellations this year, they need your help now more than ever. Requests for Crisis Relief have increased by 883% since the pandemic began and calls to Support Act’s Wellbeing Helpline are up 52%.

So wear a T-shirt from one of your favourite Aussie bands on November 20. Might I recommend an up-and-coming act your friends might not know to spread the word about their music? If you’re not sure what to wear, check out Support Act’s premium T-shirt range, with exclusive, limited-edition designs from top Aussie acts including Amy Shark, Dope Lemon, Kate Miller-Heidke, and The Teskey Brothers. 100% of the net proceeds from all these shirts will go to Support Act. Alternatively, visit the merch section of your favourite bands’ websites. Use #ausmusictshirtday and tag @supportact, @triplej, and @aria_official to spread the word. And if you can (because I know many of us are hurting through this pandemic), give generously to Support Act. Their work will help our industry so much, ensuring it can return in full force once this nasty pandemic is over.

Isol-Aid will also run a very special Ausmusic T-shirt Day stream featuring Alex Lahey, Dave Graney and Clare Moore, Emily Wurramara, Gordon Koang, L-Fresh the Lion, Mahalia Barnes, Melinda Schneider, Memphis LK, Romy Vager (RVG), and Yirinda. Check that out from 3:55 pm on November 20.
