Prahran Square Block Party boasts headlining performances from Mildlife, a Melbourne-based, Australian psychedelic jazz fusion group; 30/70, a Melburnian future-jazz collective; Emma Volard, a boundary breaking future soul artist; and BUMPY, a Noongar woman, Naarm artist and winner of 2022 triple j unearthed NIMAs (National Indigenous Music Awards), whose voice is incredibly beautiful, transformative, complex and stirring.

Prahran Square Block Party features a diverse range of music with a focus on supporting local musicians, the LGBTIQ+ community, female artists, Aboriginal talent and other diverse cultures within the live music industry. As a free all-ages, family friendly gig, Prahran Square Block Party will provide live music for younger audiences, giving passionate young music fans the chance to see their live performers up close. The event will also draw visitors to the iconic Chapel Street precinct in Prahran to reignite retail and hospitality businesses.
Minister for Creative Industries Steve Dimopoulos said: “On The Road Again has already reignited live music in regional Victoria and in Melbourne’s CBD, and will now kick-start a huge line-up of live music events across inner Melbourne. This massive line-up of events will appeal to every music fan, provide new opportunities for musicians and performers, support local businesses and get our live music scene pumping like never before.”

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
