In this episode of Talk of the Town, we sit down with Chris Bowen, the founder of Samford Live and a seasoned music producer with a rich background in the industry. We explore Chris's impressive career, from his roles at Music Australia and Arts Queensland to his work with iconic Brisbane venues like the Powerhouse and the Judith Wright Arts Centre.
Chris shares the inspiration behind creating Samford Live, a community-based initiative bringing diverse, high-quality live music to Samford Village. We discuss the impact of Samford Live on the local community, how the events are curated, and the challenges and rewards of organising live music in a small, close community. Chris also offers insights into the evolving music scene, the importance of community engagement, and what the future holds for Samford Live. Whether you're a music lover or interested in community initiatives, this conversation provides a fascinating look at the power of music to bring people together.
