Tom Gleeson hosting revamped APRA Music Awards
There are new categories, an esteemed new musical director, and one of the country’s best comedians onboard the revamped 2024 APRA Music Awards.
The Most Performed Hard Rock/Heavy Metal category has been added to the suite of genre awards, with the nominees and winners determined by royalties earned from Australian performances of works across broadcast, digital downloads, streaming services, and live performances.
The Breakthrough Songwriter of the Year category has also been renamed Emerging Songwriter of the Year and is assessed by an independent advisory group, with the final determination of this award with the APRA Board of Directors.
