ARIA Awards move into Asia

Syndicated chart show Asia Pop 40 has partnered with the Australian Recorded Industry Association as Official Asian Radio Partner of The 2014 ARIA Awards Connected By Telstra.

Asia Pop 40 Executive Producer and CEO of EON Media Group, Rob Graham, says, “Australian music is a mainstay of our Asia Pop 40 chart. The ARIAs are the most significant music awards show in the Asia-Pacific Region and we are very excited to be part of the event.”

The Asia Pop 40 will feature the major nominated artists during the weeks leading up to ARIA’s in November and they will also be sending two lucky listeners to this year’s ceremony with host Dom Lau.

“The current wave of Australian music has reached all over the world, and given our proximity to Asia, it is not surprising that so many Australian artists have found airplay and success in Asia. We are thrilled to have AP40 as our Asian radio partner for the 2014 ARIA Awards,” said ARIA CEO Dan Rosen.
