Brisbane’s G20 Soundtrack

You might have thought the G20 was a bit of a bummer. Brisbane is full of boring diplomats and it's basically impossible to get into the city. But you're forgetting one thing: if Obama wants music, then we will give Obama music.

Overview

Rumour has it that Obama likes his beats, so as part of the G20 celebrations, The City Sounds is bringing a bunch of music to our city's streets. Running for seven days between November 10-16, Brisbane’s G20 Soundtrack will see 100 musicians showcased in more than 200 live performances all over the CBD.

The program features a range of musicians, who will be playing in Queen Street Mall, Reddacliff Place, King George Square, Post Office Square and The Riverside Precinct. Don’t be surprised if you catch some sound around parks, monuments and city green patches as well — everything from funk, blues and rock will be taking over every little nook and street corner.

Of course, with G20 traffic and transport restrictions it's not as though you'll actually be able to get into the city to check out these great performers, but we think the talent on show might  just be worth the hike into town.
