We reported in June, the Global Music Match is the worldwide music matchmaking program, the 2021 version running from June to August, featuring 78 artists from 17 countries.

There were 13 participants from Australia, including some who were nominated for the 2021 Australian Folk Music Awards.

Artists from Australia, Brittany in France, Canada, Catalonia, Chile, Denmark, England, Finland, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Sweden, Scotland, Taiwan, USA and Wales collaborated in what is thought to be the world’s largest online musical matchmaking program.

The 13 Australian folk artists participating in this year’s Global Music Match are: Andrea Kirwin, Emma Swift, Ernest Aines, Francesca de Valence, Georgia State Line, Gretta Ziller, Joel Havea, Melanie Horsnell, Monique Clare, Musketeer, Rich Davies, Ruth Hazleton and Tom West.

Now Open

Following the success of the debut Global Music Match in 2020, the worldwide music matchmaking program returns from June 7, featuring 78 artists from 17 countries – including 13 from Australia.
