Who is in charge of preserving the history and memorabilia of Australian music? Kylie’s hotpants, Nick Cave’s archives, Split Enz costumes, the early photos of The Seekers… these are all artefacts of a particular time in our lives and they’re all on display in the physical collection at the Australian Music Vault at Arts Centre Melbourne. The words of bands, musicians, and music industry workers are also documented in the many online “Stories” on the AMV’s website, including the excellent series of articles about parenting and industry, titled ‘Music Industry Mums’ which features artists such as Emma Donovan and Fiona Duncan (from Spiderbait). Today we are thrilled to talk to one of the people who remind us of our physical and audible memories; welcome to the Senior Curator of the Australian Music Vault and Music Collection — Caz Laffan.
