Besides organising gigs for local artists, S.L.A.M. has also released numerous CDs and a video, all of which provide a great showcase of the local talent from the west coast of Oz.The S.L.A.M. CD releases are compilations of recordings from Perth bands. S.L.A.M. is predominantly a self-funded organisation, with many volunteers helping out with their efforts and support.Since the beginning, S.L.A.M. has expanded and grown. One thing is for sure. S.L.A.M. has developed a reputation of aiding local talent have the opportunities to have their music be heard - and this will certainly continue into the future.
