Introducing Tonedeaf.com.au


Tone Deaf provides music fans around Australia with cutting edge, irreverent interactive music entertainment. With our editorial team of music industry professionals we keep a firm finger on the music pulse in Australia and around the world.

Our ears are grubby from being kept to the ground so we know what’s happening where, which bands are about to blow up big, and when the hottest gigs and tours are happening; often before anyone else. We offer a critical take on the music business in our own unique style, rather than just regurgitating press releases.

We’re first and foremost obsessive music fans, with an editorial approach that gives us unparalleled credibility by ensuring everything we do and say is seen from a music lover’s perspective.

We also put our money where our mouth is and put on our own regular Tone Deaf live nights which feature the hottest Australian and international bands on the touring circuit.
