Now what exactly is a PopTart?...PopTarts is a night of female-fronted pop bands and female songwriters and has also become a community of artists sharing opportunities...get it? ..tarts ...pop? A concept put together by Amanda Easton, it brings together some of the best girl pop talent in Sydney...as well as attracting artists from all over Australia.

You can also send your demo/CD and bio to Simon Morel at: PopTarts, PO Box 907, Leichhardt, NSW 2040. Just let us know when your package is on the way!
Oh and yes, the boys felt left out, so every now and again we do a showcase especially for them. We call it PopStuds. The name is tongue in cheek but these boys take their pop very seriously!
We showcase at The Unity Hall Hotel in Balmain on the first Tuesday of the month and at The Steyne Hotel in Manly on the second Tuesday of the month.

There are four to six different acts on each night, one or two usually in acoustic mode, the others as full bands, starting at 7:30pm. The nights are designed for artists to present the 'best' of their work, within a thirty minute time frame. We decided not to have a door charge so that the artists could get the biggest possible walk-in crowd and get the opportunity to build up their fan base. So far we've had other artists and bands including: Robyn Loau, moneypenny, Morgana (ex-Nitocris) & the Monstars, Fyreflies, Ezmerelda, Yolanda Thomas, Amber Rees, Maz, Evelyn Duprai, Sarah Humphries, Jo Elms, Miss Little, Living with Amy, MEATBEE, Me-Lee's Mosaic, Silvana, butterfly 9, gilli moon, Sarah McGregor, Zkye, Jac Amidy, Sandy Klose, Akradia and many more through the Tarts' doors..

Want to discover some of the best female-fronted original music in Sydney? Or want to perform some live shows at great venues among a supportive group of other artists and industry folk? PopTarts is a series of music showcase events that has grown into being a community of music artists. We are committed to promoting, supporting and inspiring original, independent female (& now also male) fronted Pop. Just befriend us to find out what's happening and send us a message if you'd like a gig. We showcase at The Empire in Annandale (last Monday of the month); The Unity Hall in Balmin (first Tuesday of the month) and have another Northern Sydney venue in the works - watch this space!
Now "Pop" is in the broadest sense of the word - if it's popular anywhere, we'll have it. Our Sydney weekly showcases have been running for almost 8 years. There will continue to be plenty of special PopTarts One Night Stands, too, so to speak :)! Contact Amanda Easton, Simon Morel or Tiffany Walker (you can get us through this page) to find out more or book a gig. And there's more at www.amandaeaston.com/poptarts and www.youtube.com/poptartslive, so pay us a visit.
