LabelState Pop-Up Shop

Overview

Online music merchandise moguls LabelState are opening their very own pop-up shop on Oxford Street, allowing Sydney residents the chance to surf their store as well as their site for tees that showcase to everyone reading their chest that they love Australian music.

LabelState is a godsend to up-and-coming bands and music organisations as they facilitate a no-cost, no-hassle solution to selling merchandise before delivering a $5 royalty to artists for every shirt of theirs sold. The shop will be stocking shirts from more than 400 Australian bands, artists, labels and venues already on the site, including radio heroes FBi and bands such as Velociraptor and DZ Deathrays. So now you can enjoy everything from their website with the added benefit of trying before you buy. The store is only in town for two months from June 4 to August 4, so be quick before you're back to guessing your size online.

The shop will also host a series of free events such as live performances from musicians, kicking off with Jeremy Neale (of Velociraptor fame) broadcasting live instore on FBi Radio Saturday, June 6, at 2pm. So even if you have nothing to buy, you can still just browse, with your ears.
