Australian Music’s Top 30 Under 30

List-o-mania guys! The Music Network have recently unveiled Australian music’s Top 30 Under 30 – a proverbial “tip of the cap to those who are shaping the industry while in their twenties”. So bravo to you young industry shapers!

With inclusions like Rice Is Nice linchpin Julia Wilson, music photographer Dan Boud, graphic designer Jonathan Zawada and DJ-slash-philanthropists Nina Agzarian and Andrew Levins, we’re glad that a handful of Pedestrian’s friends made the list. As well as the embodiment of Pedestrian himself, my boss and noted suit wearer Chris Wirasinha.

Check out the Top 30 under 30 below, it’s a great list of talent who are far more ambitious than I. Though if we were going to be pedantic, the list should sacrifice some semantic punch and call itself the Top 30 under 31. Sorry. No more list scrutiny, I promise.
