After cleaning up at the 2023 ARIA Awards, Troye Sivan is in the box seat heading into the 2024 Shure Rolling Stone Australia Awards, set for March 26 in central Sydney.
The Aussie pop singer Sivan is in the hunt for best record with Something to Give Each Other, his ARIA Chart-topping 2023 album, and the Rolling Stone Global Award. Sivan dominated the ARIAs with four wins, extending his career collection of pointy trophies to six.
Almost nominated for multiple RS Awards categories are Dom Dolla, Peach PRC, Teen Jesus and The Jean Teasers, The Teskey Brothers and Fisher.
For the first time, the Ivy Sydney will host the ceremony, with winners in five categories announced on the night: best record, best single, best new artist, Rolling Stone Global Award and and the Reader’s Choice Award.
Also announced today (March 4), Kylie Minogue has a chance to add more silverware to her treasure chest with a nod for the Global Award, for which the brand’s international editorial teams, including editors from Rolling Stone U.S. and Rolling Stone U.K., cast their votes.
Kylie is riding a hot streak. The “princess of pop” received the global icon honor at the weekend during the 2024 Brit Awards in London; recently signed with United Talent Agency (UTA) for live representation in the U.S. and Canada and acting roles worldwide; her More Than Just a Residency show in Las Vegas has been extended through May; she won her second Grammy last month; and she’ll receive Billboard’s Women in Music Icon Award at a ceremony March 6.
“Throughout 2023, Australian artists continue to surpass expectations both domestically and on a global stage, and we’re excited to recognize the ongoing growth of our local music scene,” comments Poppy Reid, editor-in-chief at Rolling Stone Australia publisher The Brag Media. “Our fourth annual Rolling Stone Awards will recognize the outstanding work and exceptional artists emerging from this country. We are also stoked to welcome back our headline partner Shure, who have a longstanding commitment to showcasing and supporting local music. We look forward to celebrating with the music industry on March 26.”
Rolling Stone Australia’s average issue readership is up 10.5% to 243,000 for the 12 months to September 2023, according to the latest Roy Morgan Australian Magazine Readership Report. That result represents a sixth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth for the domestic print edition of Rolling Stone.
