Bands have the opportunity to play in professional gigs in some of Adelaide’s hottest venues. Many well-known SA bands played their first public gigs at an OTC show. This is an invaluable opportunity for young bands to gain the exposure to propel them forward in the music industry.
The Off The Couch team will learn the tricks of the trade from music and events industry professionals in weekly training sessions. Here they will learn to program, promote and produce gigs and will assist with the event management of six Off The Couch live music shows.
OTC engages music lovers on many levels – as event coordinators, promoters, stage managers, musicians and audiences.
