About Ku
Ku Promotions is the leading promotions company on the North Coast and has been presenting shows of touring artists here for 18 years. It is also the the only female-run promotions company to appear in Stuart Coupe’s book “The Promoters”. 

Ku Promotions was best known as the local/regional promoter for world and roots artists. Over the last few years, Ku has expanded into many genres of music to include better-known and more commercial acts. Ku is now synonymous with excellent music from artists both internationally renowned and Australian grown.

Ku has presented sell-out shows for Xavier Rudd, The Cat Empire and Missy Higgins, Ben Lee, Kisschasy, Damien Rice (Ireland) and Martha Wainwright (USA) and many  more. Damien Rice told audiences in Melbourne his favourite show in Australia was here with Ku.
A highlight of Ku Promotions performances is that they are held in alternative venues to the usual pub circuit, thereby attracting an ever-growing broad, All-Ages audience. We have a reputation for creating intimate and enjoyable settings for shows, -  as a result, many acts are now requesting to work with Ku Promotions in the beautiful old country halls we use here in the Shire.

Ku can fulfil all promotional needs including booking venues, production, accommodation, arranging publicity, organizing media interviews, poster design, printing and distribution, and ticket sales and other promotional endeavours.
Ku is also available to do publicity only for shows.  
 

We aim consistently to provide shows of an impeccable standard, with artists and musicians from all over the globe and right here in Australia.
