About Me


JOIN THE LAUNCH SQUAD MEMBERS CLUB
The Members Club is something that has taken a long while to get up and running. Blood sweat and tears have been put into the process of pulling together all the pieces of the puzzle to pass on darn good discounts to you!
Finally YOU as musicians (or friends of musicians – hey pass this on to your muso mates!) can experience discounts at quality providers around Sydney, WHICH WILL ASSIST you in attaining gear and services on the cheap. Why? Because you will be a Launch Squad Member, that’s why!
As a member of The Launch Squad you will no longer have to pay full price for that guitar you’ve had your eye on. Or that bass rig that seems a little too far out of your price range. Don’t know where to get short run posters printed off at a cost effective rate?? We can help! (Or more so GNP Printing can help!) The benefits of becoming a Launch Squad Member and paying the small annual joining fee of $30 will soon see you enjoying discounts in many quality Launch Squad supporters around Sydney. Our Launch Squad Supporters are businesses that WILL help you in getting your music out there, and will be a way for you to do it cheaper then what it would normally cost.
Membership to our Members Club costs only $30 (per year), and entitles you to extraordinary discounts with many great Launch Squad Supporters. From discounts with recording studios to discounts with short run printing companies, to a MASSIVE 20 - 25% discount with Dream Music, who specialise in guitars, amps, and all the things to make your rock n roll dreams come true!
Membership is open to everybody and anybody, if you want to share in the discounts simply fill in our membership form (which is available online at our website) and post to us with a cheque to PO BOX 160 WESTGATE NSW 2048
We will mail you out a membership card and you will then have immediate access to the wide range of discounts that we offer as being an exclusive Launch Squad Member.

ABOUT US
The Launch Squad is a newly established music venue consultancy, which launched early in the year of 2006. The Launch Squad aims to be a prominent player in the growth of Sydney’s local music scene, for both grassroots and established musicians.
The Launch Squad team consists of General Manager James Dawson who has eight years experience in providing music services to venues.
For 7 years James Dawson has been on the forefront of developing acoustic music culture in Sydney’s Inner West. As a part of a previous venture, James ran a series of special showcase gigs. These showcases featured some of Sydney’s elite acoustic based musicians. That movement was known as The Acoustic Lounge. The new movement is known as The Launch Squads Acoustic Sessions.

Currently The Launch Squad are servicing these venues.

MISSION STATEMENT
The Launch Squad aims to provide local musicians performance opportunities in new and existing venues in Sydney and Greater Sydney. We act as the intermediaries between artists and venues, and we facilitate a healthy balance between the two parties. We do this by acting for/and on the behalf of musicians direct to the venues. We maintain the artist’s integrity, whilst ensuring that the venue is also happy.
We achieve this by our friendly, personable service whilst being professional and positive.
