Live at Spectrum is a LIVE streaming music television show streamed LIVE via YouTube, Facebook Live and the Live at Spectrum App. The replay is then aired around Australia on Foxtel, Melbourne’s community station Channel 31 and uploaded to the Live at Spectrum website for viewing on-demand. Live at Spectrum presents Gippsland musicians playing live ‘to air’ from a purpose-built television/recording studio facility in Traralgon. The show also features live interviews with the artists and pre-recorded stories about music related events and ‘goings-on’ throughout the greater Gippsland area. Live at Spectrum also hosts a live studio audience.

The mission is to re-invigorate the local music scene, giving local talent of all genres a platform through which to share their art with the community through a uniquely innovative platform, and to allow volunteers from Gippsland to learn new skills and increase their knowledge of broadcast media techniques.

Additionally, during the live airing of the show, Live at Spectrum engages with the community in real-time through social media. When watching at home on smart televisions, smart phones and tablets etc., the community engage by sending in messages, questions and photos in real time, interactively.

Gippsland has an amazing live music scene, diverse in its music styles for all ages. Live at Spectrum has been incredibly effective in promoting our many artists and their music. LAS supports artists and venues, adding to the vibrancy of this sector of the arts.

It is totally volunteer-based, run on a shoestring budget from season to season. It desperately deserves some funding support from Pick My Project.

As someone that's been involved in the local music industry since birth, I can attest to the power that a show such as Live at Spectrum holds. With less and less opportunity to see music performed live in regional areas, and with increasing challenges teachers face when it comes to inspiring young people to learn music, a show such as this helps to ensure that we will continue to value the quality musicians we have amongst us, and inspire and motivate a continued stream of new ones.

Regional areas are fertile grounds for farming, but often barren areas for culture - predominantly due to limited opportunity, not lack of talent or drive. Gippsland has a wealth of hidden arts talent that needs platforms such as this to help equal the playing field and ensure that young artists from country areas are given no-less opportunities to thrive than their metropolitan counterparts.

I often wonder how much of a difference this show could have made for me and my aspirations to be a great musician, had it been around 20 years ago.

Art and music are one of the things human society values the most when looking back throughout history. Ignoring the arts in the way society currently does is ignoring what we as a society ultimately value most about the human condition.

This monthly 'Live at Spectrum' show run by volunteers is streamed all over the world. It has given an opportunity for Gippsland musicians to perform on a larger medium. The show is in need of an injection of funds to update equipment and I support this entirely!
