Visible Sessions @ the BlackBox

A new series of monthly live music and jam sessions with flavours from all around the world. Experience a fresh mix of local MC's, vocalists, bands and beatmakers as they fuse styles and create new Aussie sounds in the heart of Melbourne.

The Visible Sessions have evolved through MAV's work with the Arts Centre on the Mix It Up initiative and through MAV's Visible music mentorship project which for the past four years has given a kick start to an incredible range of musical talents from all around the globe and which has supported some of the most exciting and innovative new world music acts to emerge in Melbourne in recent years.

The Visible Sessions provide a unique 'small stage' performance and creative development platform for Visible artists to further develop their skills and profile and to connect with audiences in the Melbourne music scene.
