Troye Sivan x Dom Dolla

Around Australia, November has always been Aus Music Month on Triple J, the ARIA's have been held in November and Ausmusic T-Shirt Day is getting bigger and bigger each year. So this past week, I have leaned into to HUGE Aussie acts.

Troye Sivan, first up for my first gig at Brisbane's Riverstage. Man the people in Brisbane are friendly. Like so friendly.

At this year's ARIA Awards, Troye had a moment. For Something to Give Each Other, he won, Best Pop Release, Album of the Year and Best Solo Artist. Last year, for Rush alone, he also won Best Solo Artist, along with Song of the Year. So the ARIA's love Troye Sivan!

Dom Dolla, also won Best Dance/Electronic Release at this year's ARIA Awards for Saving Up.

So to the concerts. Troye was on a perfect near summer evening. Dom Dolla had the skies open up, with the Domain flooding, being a wild wet mess. So I only stayed for the first half of his two hour set. I caught the end of Flight Facilities who joined the bill during the week.

Now Troye was spectacular. Kicking off with a sexy Got Me Started, followed by my latest favourite,What's The Time Where You Are?, incredible! He threw in tunes with recent tour partner Charli XCX, 1999 and the brilliant Talk Talk remix.

He threw in My My My and Bloom, which were huge favourites at his previous 2019 tour I went to. Boy a lot has changed in the sexual nature of the show. Not to mention the sexy dancers and interactions with Troye (baby).

Now to Dom. A DJ is hard to watch live if you are not in the zone. The weather had seriously impacted my excitement about this gig. He did however post a recent full London set to YouTube, so I guess I should watch that. Maybe that is for viewing next week.

Speaking of next week, Troye Sivan was the Album of the Year for last year. This year I am peaking early. This year's Album of the Year will be posted next week!Who will it be!

So tomorrow may be December, however remember to support Australian music in December, January, March, or hell July. These are our stories from our incredible artists. New or old, Australia has such a wide array of excellent talent!
