Tame Impala, Sampa The Great early winners at ARIA Awards as Archie Roach inducted into Hall of Fame
Tame Impala, the West Australian psychedelic pop band, have picked up four wins in the early stages of a socially distanced ARIA Awards ceremony.
The live-streamed event, with awards presented in an empty convention centre in Sydney and accepted by artists largely via video from home, is a chance for some celebration at the end of a tough year for the music business.
Tame Impala, the project led by producer and songwriter Kevin Parker, won Best Rock Album and Best Group, beating 5 Seconds of Summer, DMA’S, Lime Cordiale and The Teskey Brothers.
Parker, who was meant to be touring Australia with the band next week, also won Engineer of the Year and Producer of the Year for The Slow Rush, the band’s fourth album.
