Since its inception PBS has been a huge supporter of the Australasian Worldwide Music Expo. Now in its seventh year AWME will once again showcase the finest roots music from Australia, the region and beyond across four days and nights in Melbourne this November 13-16th and PBS is right there beside them.
This year, AWME (Australasian Worldwide Music Expo) will be jam-packed with high-profile speakers across a broad conference program, approximately 500 local and international music and arts industry professionals and an amazing array of musical talent.

AWME is excited to add the following artists: Byron Bay local & multi-platinum singer/songwriter Pete Murray who will hit the AWME stage for the very first time; and Sydney-based artist Declan Kelly presenting his Diesel 'n Dub project , paying homage to the classic Midnight Oil album by giving it his reggae-dub treatment.

Other homegrown acts making their debut appearances will be Melbourne-based lasses and soul sistas Chelsea Wilson and Rita Satch , who will showcase their take of modern day jazz and soul; as well musical explorers OH PEP! with their contemporary folk.

Representing the Northern Territory are three very diverse artists on the CAAMA Music label including singer Cassandra Williams; Stewart Gaykamangu who will release his debut solo album in October; as well as desert-reggae group Tjintu Desert Band , who will travel from the remote community of Ikuntji (Haasts Bluff) west of Alice Springs.
