Podcasts about groovin the moo

Rumours began to swirl on Monday, by Wednesday it had been confirmed: Groovin The Moo - one of Australia's biggest regional music festivals - would not be going ahead in 2024. The post-COVID years have not been kind to many Australian music festivals, with Groovin The Moo (GTM) being the latest event to shut up shop, pointing to low ticket sales amidst a worsening cost of living crisis. GTM has been bringing some of the best home grown and international acts to Australian regional centres since 2005, and had only postponed proceedings twice in 2020 and 2021 as the COVID pandemic wreaked havoc across Australia. Groovin the Moo occupied a unique space in Australia's festival market. The all-ages event served as a first festival experience for many music lovers, whist bringing a large scale live music event to areas that would otherwise have missed out. Over it's 19 years, GTM has visited 12 different regional areas, and while organisers are hopeful of a return in the future, history tells us that 2023 may have been the last edition of the festival ever. Bewildered fans on GTM's Instagram were quick to point out that tickets only went on sale 8 days before the cancellation - how could they be so sure that their event was gonna bust? GTM is a festival with a lot of moving parts. The lineup features dozens of acts, both local and international, traversing six states and territories. This means a lot of people need to get paid - think stage riggers, food vendors, bar operators, truck drivers, security, and set up and pack down crews. The list goes on. Without strong early ticket sales, organisers couldn't be confident that enough cash would be there to honour the many contracts that would have been in place. The broke elephant in the room is, of course, cost of living. You don't need us to tell you that just about everything has become a lot more expensive. This means that operating costs shoot up for events, and ticket prices do the same for cash-strapped punters. For many, heading to events like GTM is far more of a commitment than it was pre-COVID/cozzie. How people buy tickets has also changed a lot since COVID. A huge chunk of ticket sales are happening in the weeks and days leading up to an event, meaning organisers cannot accurately predict how many people will be rocking up to shows, or how much cash will be hitting their coffers. This trend has been confirmed by many artists, organisers, managers and promoters that have spoken to homebrewed.au over the last couple of years. Many have pointed to booming boutique festivals like Meredith, Pitch and even Bluesfest to suggest that punters might be losing faith in the traditional Aussie festival format; instead choosing to spend their hard-earned money on immersive experiences that extend well beyond the acts on stage. Some punters also believe the traditional indie sound festivals like Groovin have are falling out of favour with the 23 and under crew, with them instead preferring EDM music and festivals. Perhaps GTM and others like it are ageing out of the core festival-going age groups. Like with so many things, the reason GTM 2024 won't be going ahead is likely a combination of factors. And with clouds still hanging over the future of the iconic Falls festival, we could be witnessing the loss of two mainstays of the Australian festival scene in twelve months, along with the dozen or so smaller events that have tanked post-COVID. It goes without saying that this is not good news for an Australian music scene. Less events equal less opportunity for emerging and established artists alike, who are already battling for limited stages and exposure. So where you can, get along to a gig or grab some merch from your favourite artists - they need it now more than ever. So, what's going on with ticket sales? And what about the model?

Join Timothy Carroll and Oscar Dawson of Holy Holy as they sit down with Matty O on Triple M Homegrown to commemorate a decade of incredible music and memories. From their chance encounter as English teachers in Thailand to their rise to worldwide success, this episode takes you on an unforgettable journey through the band's remarkable history. The conversation begins with the boys reminiscing about their time in Thailand, where they initially crossed paths but struggled to master the local language. Fast forward to the present day, and their journey has led them to heights they could have never imagined during those early days. Back in Australia, Tim shares a heartwarming memory of witnessing Oscar's previous band, 'Dukes of Windsor,' achieve their own success. Little did they know that their paths would converge again in Sweden, where Oscar found himself crashing on Tim's couch while working on a 'Dukes of Windsor' record in Berlin, Germany. With minimal production experience and basic equipment, Tim approached Oscar with some musical ideas. Being the production wiz he is, Oscar jumped in to help bring those ideas to life. The duo's chemistry was undeniable, and though they never intended to form a band, the magic they created together was undeniable. Their first song 'Impossible Like You,' released in 2013, exceeded all expectations, receiving national radio airplay and opening doors to countless gigs. This unforeseen success set them on a course that would change their lives forever. Tim and Oscar also share touching moments they've experienced with fans, from encountering devoted admirers with tattoos of their lyrics to fans claiming they gave birth to a non-stop playlist of Holy Holy music. Matty takes the duo on a nostalgic trip down Memory Lane, reliving some of their biggest shows to date. The recounting of their first major gig at the Palais Theatre brings laughter as they recall committing a rookie mistake of forgetting their equipment – a tale that has become part of their band's folklore. Going behind the scenes at Splendour in the Grass, Tim and Oscar recall their exhilarating experience performing at the festival, from braving the mud to camping on site and even playfully sharing a stolen bottle of Jamison from Oh Mercy. In a surprising twist, they share an amusing story of being mistaken for a David Bowie cover band due to their band name "Holy Holy." The episode concludes with delightful anecdotes of their encounters with music sensations Billie Eilish and Coolio at Groovin The Moo, solidifying their position in the music world as artists who have had the honor of sharing moments with music icons.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Interview by Kris PetersIt's not often HEAVY gets to speak with performers that are more on the pop side of rock than metal, but when that artists name bears more than a passing similarity to one of the titans of thrash then it just wouldn't be metal to say no.What's her name you may ask?Slayyyter....Yep, and if you didn't see it straight away too then hang your head in shame!Slayyter is currently in Australia thanks to Frontier Touring, performing her own headline shows as well as being on the top billing of the travelling Groovin The Moo Festival, and from all reports has been (ahem) slaying them in the aisles at each show.HEAVY felt strangely drawn to this artist and as such felt honour bound to find out more..."It's been awesome so far," she smiled. "I feel like it's fun just to bring the live show to the fans down here, and I feel like... I dunno... crowds are just incredible. There's always a lot of energy. I love it down here. It's my second trip so I've been having a lot of fun exploring and meeting with people outside of the show and getting to see all these familiar faces on tour that I always see."We ask Slayyyter to describe her live show a bit more and what fans can expect."It's pretty much just like a big rave almost," she replied. "I definitely do a mix that my DJ mixes on the side and then my own stuff. It's not just my music. I have interludes with electronic music that I really love so it's kind of just like really high energy, it feels like a nightclub. Not a lot of slow moments. It's definitely go, go, go the whole time."In the full interview Slayyyter discusses how the Groovin The Moo shows are going, who has grabbed her attention from the lineup, weighs up the pros and cons of an outdoor festival verses a club show, playing to festival crowds that might not know and/or appreciate your music, debuting new songs live on tour and how they have been received, her next album and what to expect, how and why her name so closely mirrors the titans of thrash and more.

Gabriel ‘DyspOra' Akon is an award-winning Hip-Hop recording Artist, Sonic Activist, Poet & founder of the playback 808 Kingdom. The nomadic troubadour was born in South Sudan and raised across various locations in East Africa until his family migrated to the South Australian city of Adelaide. After spending his formative years in a Refugee camp in Kenya, DyspOra saw music as a key tool in breaking down cultural, lingual and racial barriers which led him to begin writing poetry at the age of 12 & had graduated to writing rhymes by the time he was in high school. He began releasing weekly freestyle videos on YouTube in early 2010 and it was during these sporadic sessions with local producers Luke iLL and Meta Beats where he was inspired to create the playback 808 imprint and began recruiting team members and future label mates. The Playback 808 founder is the current ambassador for the Timpir Foundation which provides education to more than 1400 Children in South Sudan. He has performed at major events including Clipsal 500, Listen Out Festival, Root Down Festival, Miss Africa, Groovin The Moo, Scouted festival & Sanaa festival. These performances have allowed him to share the stage with Skepta, Skrillex, Paul Kelly, Hilltop Hoods, Amine, HorrorShow, Seth Sentry, Thundamentals, Funkoars, Kerser, Masego and Man Made Mountain. DyspOra released his long awaited ‘AUSTRALIEN' project in April 2019. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
