Leah Flanagan Band win big!!


News just through that MuNT Forum member Leah Flanagan Band is one of the five recipients of Peter Garrett's new Breakthrough Fund. They won out of a field of 42 and are the only winning entry from the Northern Territory. Massive congratulations!

Breakthrough is a pilot initiative of the Cultural Ministers Council. It provides each of the artists or groups with up to $25,000 to record a high-quality broadcast standard EP or CD which can be used to gain airplay on radio. Breakthrough funds are provided to cover recording costs, production and engineering fees, mixing, mastering, design work and printing, as well as publicity and media costs. The Breakthrough pilot initiative will be evaluated over the next 12 months.

Well done Leah and crew!! Read more here...
