The monthly live sessions from diverse acts will see the channels subscribers grow to cater to a wide demographic of music lovers and fuel cross promotion between artists.

Airlock Studios was established 20 years ago in 1998 by Ian Haug- Powderfinger & The Church guitarist. Based in the lush surrounds of the Samford Valley, only 20 minutes north the Brisbane CBD,Airlock features a large, comfortable control room, 2 different recording spaces and an isolation booth, as well as two separate additional isolation areas.
The recently renovated, world class facilities at Airlock Studios will be the setting for the live sessions. With the support of Ian Haug and his team of engineers the space will give itself over to some of Brisbane’s (and the worlds) best and well known artists and performers. It’s as Brisbane as it gets, reminding everyone again that Brissy does it best.
