AusMusic T-Shirt Day, the day were fans of Australian music wear their favourite act for the day, has arrived.
AusMusic Day is the annual fundraiser from SupportAct, the music industry charity raising funds to support music workers in crisis.
SupportAct CEO Clive Miller spoke to Noise11 about the day.
Clive explains: “With such huge profile ambassadors getting the word out there and an incredible bunch of fundraisers and donors supporting the cause, we have no doubt that this year will be our biggest yet!
“We encourage anyone who loves Aussie music and wants to support those working in the local industry to throw on their favourite Aussie music t-shirt and make a donation, so that we can continue to support music workers in crisis.”
One of the supporters of AusMusic Day 2022 is Chris Hemsworth.
So far over $200,000 has been raised for 2022, well on the way to equalling or bettering 2021 $600,000+ effort.
