The National Live Music Awards are thrilled to announce the final additions for the 2018 runs of events this Thursday!

In Adelaide, we’re thrilled to add Mary Webb to the lineup, while Radio Adelaide’s Tom Mann will take on hosting duties. Mary Webb is an acclaimed Adelaide singer-songwriter who writes and plays contemporary acoustic folk music with hints of jazz, blues and classical. Learn more about her on Facebook HERE.

In Wollongong, local rising stars Scab Baby will open the show, and comedian Marty Bright will host. Scab Baby describe themselves as “psych surf garage sludge punk with two tom’s”.

Meanwhile at the gala, Katie Noonan will be joining Timothy James Bowen on stage for a very special performance. Make sure to watch that LIVE on Netgigs, Facebook or at nlmas.com.au if you can’t attend yourself. Dominic Miller will be the host with the most, and Dykes on Mics, Branko Cosic (TAPE/OFF), Photographer Matt Walter and Kellie Lloyd (Screamfeeder) have been added to the list of presenters set to hit the Triffid stage.
