Australia’s Rock Music Scene Sees Significant Growth
According to recent data from analytics platform Luminate, rock music has become the largest streaming genre in Australia, generating 26.1 billion streams in 2025. This surpasses the popularity of pop and hip-hop music in the country.
Despite this surge in popularity, Australian rock bands may not be benefiting from the trend, according to Charlotte Markowitsch, a PhD candidate at RMIT. Markowitsch’s comments come as the data reveals a significant increase in rock music streaming.
The Outer East band has also weighed in on the rise of rock music in Australia, although their specific comments are not detailed in the available information.
It is worth noting that the data from Luminate provides insight into the current state of music streaming in Australia, with rock music leading the way in terms of streams. However, further information is needed to understand the impact of this trend on local rock bands.
