A movement in motion
Christian music is no longer on the sidelines — it’s shaping the global sound. Billboard reports faith-driven songs are returning to major charts for the first time in over a decade and notes a nearly 60 per cent surge in Christian music streaming worldwide – fuelled by a new generation of digital listeners.
As the genre’s reach and influence accelerate internationally, Australia – home to extraordinary talent and one of the largest exporters of the genre worldwide – stands uniquely positioned to lead this next wave.
The CMC is the catalyst for that momentum — uniting artists and industry leaders to grow the genre, advance the gospel, and establish Australia at the heart of a global movement redefining the sound of faith.
The lineup
The event includes speakers, artists and songwriters at the forefront of Christian music.
There will be acoustic worship with CXMMXNS, a Writers Round with Lachlan Holmes (Southland), Lucy Sugerman and Ethan Beer, as well as speakers such as Bhavani Williams from CCLI, Sam Thompson from Akta Media/Kingdom Creatives and more.
