Podcast: TMN Talks COVID-19 and its impact on live music in 2021 & beyond

This week on TMN Talks, editor Vivienne Kelly and publisher Jake Challenor discuss the devastating impact of COVID-19 on the live music industry and the individuals who work in the sector as Australia battles another outbreak causing more mass cancellations and postponements.

The podcast also delves into why sport is consistently prioritised by politicians and regulators when making calls on new restrictions, and the dramatic skills shortage the entertainment sector could face should Australia ever be vaccinated and ready to sing and dance once more.

TMN Talks is a new unfiltered podcast which dives into the personalities, politics and pressures of Australia’s music industry.

The TMN Talks podcast will come to you each Thursday, dissecting the biggest news of the week and delving into the issues facing the sector.
