Hooray! TMN’s music industry awards ‘The Tinnies’ are back

TMN’s editor Vivienne Kelly said it was important to finish this tumultuous, and sometimes torturous, year on a high.
“We know everyone might be a little tired of staring at their computer screens this year, and missing the electric buzz of a crowded room full of your industry friends and peers – or the buzz from champagne, or from actually collecting an award and celebrating in person – but we’re keen to give the industry something fun to celebrate as we wave goodbye to 2020 in the best way we can,” she said.
“The TMN Tinnies celebrate creative excellence across the Australian music business, and even if we can’t do it in person, we’re really looking forward to seeing the fantastic nominations roll in.”
