MUSIC SA has been enjoying a unique partnership with Adelaide Airport with “This Is SA Music”, a curated series of original South Australian live music that is performed in the main terminal every Friday afternoon, plus alternate Saturdays and Sundays.

We are proud to offer this new music experience for passengers, friends and families, that highlights the original work of South Australian songwriters.

To date, “This Is SA Music” has hosted 20 original artists performing in T1, presenting 150 live shows to a potential audience of 500,000, and another 100 shows are programmed for 2015.

Here’s the list of performing acts for January – June 2015.

To celebrate this collaboration, Adelaide Airport and Music SA have produced a limited edition download-only compilation featuring songs by 16 artists that have performed in the series.

2000 limited edition cards will be available free from Adelaide Airport T1 Retailers from Friday 23 January, when the compilation is launched by Hon. John Gazzola MLC. The launch event features live performances by Tom West, Vincent’s Chair, Brillig and Germein Sisters at various locations between 3-6pm.
