The ARIA Awards from then to now - pt 2: A conversation with Phillip Mortlock and Mark Pope

  • Summary

  • In Part 2 of this conversation, Peter, Phillip and Mark speak about the growth of the ARIA Awards from an event that was a sit down dinner with no live music or television broadcast, to a big broadcast production on television filled with live performances. They share their favourite stories from last 30 years of ARIA Awards, from the early days of the awards through to recent times. They speak about their most memorable awards moments with Billy Thorpe, Kylie Minogue & Michael Hutchence, The Waifs, Keith Urban and John Butler, and plenty more; along with the ill-fated ARIA Awards broadcast on the steps of the Sydney Opera House. Peter, Phillip and Mark also look to the strong future ahead for the ARIA Awards.

    Peter Rix was the Chairman and Producer of the first 14 ARIA Awards from 1987 through to 2000. In this first conversation, he speaks with two of the founding fathers of the ARIA Awards: former ARIA board director Phillip Mortlock and the former long time producer of the ARIA Awards, Mark Pope.
