The 2014 ARIA Awards are upon us, as the nation begins to celebrate and recognise the year that was in music. As the red carpet uncoils and local and international music stars take their seats at Sydney’s The Star, Music Feeds is here by your side to make sure you stay up-to-date with all the news of the winners.
A whole host of artists are due to both attend and perform at tonight’s ceremony. ARIA Hall Of Fame recipients Neil Finn and Paul Kelly will take the stage together, Album Of The Year nominees Jessica Mauboy and Dan Sultan will also perform, as will Chet Faker, Hilltop Hoods 5 Seconds Of Summer and their English boy band counterparts One Direction.
The ARIA Awards will be televised on channel TEN from 7:30pm tonight, but some of the winners will be announced before the broadcast begins. In fact the first award of the evening has already been declared with the award for Best Dance Release going to Canberra electro house duo Peking Duk for their track High.
Readers can see the full list of winners in the gallery below, plus all the nominees, and keep checking back as all the winners are announced. For all the happenings on the ARIA Awards red carpet check out our sister site theFashionSpot‘s red carpet coverage.
UPDATE 27/11/14: Sia has given away her four ARIA Awards, after expressing her unhappiness at being labelled a “no-show” at last night’s ceremony. Details here.
