The guitar made to save live music.
Melbourne is known as the live music capital of the world, with more live music played on more stages than any other city. Unfortunately, what once was a thriving music community has now been devastated by forced restrictions and closures due to the global pandemic. With venues, artists and the entire local music industry bleeding, our local live music scene needed our support like never before. We drew attention to the need to support our local live music scene by creating a one-of-a-kind guitar crafted from the timber taken from 4 of Melbourne’s most iconic live music venues – The Tote, The Espy, The Corner and Cherry Bar – as an enduring symbol of the important role our live music venues play in fostering our once thriving music community.
