Ανακοινώθηκαν οι υποψηφιότητες για τα φετινά ARIA AWARDS

H Australian Recording Industry Association κάθε χρόνο βραβεύει και τιμάει τους εγχώριους καλλιτέχνες της Αυστραλίας. Η βραδιά των βραβείων αποτελεί μια μουσική γιορτή για την τοπική μουσική σκηνή. Η πρώτη τελετή ARIA Awards πραγματοποιήθηκε το 1987. Έτσι και φέτος ανακοινώθηκαν οι υποψηφιότητες για την βράβευση των καλλιτεχνών που μονοπώλησαν το ενδιαφέρον του κοινού, η οποία θα λάβει χώρα 28 Νοεμβρίου 2018.
