Amyl and the Sniffers, Royel Otis Lead Finalists for 2025 AIR Awards

Some of Australia's biggest musical exports are up for high-profile honors at this year's AIR Awards, set to be handed out on July 31 at the Adelaide Town Hall in South Australia. Leading the charge in this year's event are the likes of Royel Otis, who are up for four awards, just one year after being named breakthrough independent artist of the year at the 2024 edition. This year sees them up for the likes of best independent rock album or EP, independent album of the year, and independent marketing team of the year.

Royel Otis will be in fine company, sharing the former two categories with both Amyl and the Sniffers and King Stingray. Amyl, meanwhile, are also up for independent song of the year for 'U Should Not Be Doing That,' which recently took out song of the year at the APRA Music Awards last month. Other well-represented artists at this year's ceremony are Emily Wurramara, Confidence Man and Alice Ivy, who are up for four awards each, with the latter pair in contention for best independent dance, electronica or club single and Best Independent Dance or Electronica Album or EP. Acts such as Indigenous hip-hop supergroup 3%, Gut Health, and others are also hoping to take home multiples at the event. 'It's a wonderful opportunity to recognise the work the independent music industry does in providing talented and emerging artists and music businesses with a platform to share their art with a wider audience,' commented South Australian minister for arts, Andrea Michaels MP. Officially known as the Australian Independent Record Awards, the awards were first established in 2006 as an effort to 'recognise, promote, and celebrate the success of Australia's Independent Music sector.' This year also features a new category, with independent mix, studio or mastering engineer of the year set to be handed out at the July ceremony for the first time. Some of Australia's biggest musical exports have been recognized by the AIRs in recent years, including RVG, who took home last year's best independent album for Brain Worms, and Jem Cassar-Daley, whose 'King of Disappointment' was named best independent single/EP.
