Muso's Gear That Gives Back

In an industry often dominated by big retailers, a new partnership between OzSoundz and Local Sounds is putting independent artists first. By combining high-quality music gear with a "Community First" model that reinvests profits into artist sponsorships, OzSoundz and Local Sounds is ensuring that local musicians have the tools, the stage, and the support they need to thrive.

Muso's Gear That Gives Back

In the Aussie music scene, it’s rare to find brands that actually put their money where their mouth is when it comes to independent artists. That’s why the new partnership between OzSoundz and Local Sounds feels like such a win for the emerging and independent artists.

OzSoundz is a family-run business with over 40 years of history in the industry. Founded by Jason "Plummo" Plumridge, the team is made up of Newcastle Conservatorium grads and Sydney session musos. They’ve been in the trenches, they know exactly what it’s like to try and record an album on a budget or scramble for gear before a Friday night gig.

Their mission is simple: support the people who are actually making the music. They back this up with a "Community First" model, where a slice of their profits goes directly back into artist sponsorships, funding new projects, and helping independent acts get into the studio.

The link-up with Local Sounds just makes sense. Local Sounds has always focused on giving independent artists a bigger stage through radio and promotion. OzSoundz provides the physical tools to make that music happen.

It’s about more than just selling quality guitar strings, it’s about ensuring the person playing that guitar has a stage to play on and a community that has their back.

One of the biggest headaches for independent musos is finding gear that’s professional enough for the studio but won't fall apart on a regional tour. OzSounds only sells quality equipment.

Studio Essentials: Reliable interfaces and mics for the home-recording setup.

Gig Ready Accessories: High-quality strings, sticks, and cables that won't break half way through a set.

Fast Postage: They offer Australia-Wide delivery, so whether you’re performing in the city or crafting a new EP in the regions, you won't be left waiting.

To kick things off, OzSoundz is rolling out the red carpet for the Local Sounds community. They want to make it easier for you to gear up for your next release or tour without draining the bank account.
