What is

GEAR?

GEAR Zine: Keeping musicians close, and communities closer.

GEAR was launched in 2023 as a platform for emerging artists.

Created by music students, the founders set out to provide an accessible and inclusive space for local talent. The platform has since grown to accommodate all grassroots art, expanding outside of the student community.

Since its inception, GEAR Zine has published 10 editions, held 4 launch events and helped over 100 grassroots artists find a voice.

We look to celebrate art in all its formats.

GEAR are so inclusive… they bring everyone from everywhere, no matter the genre, no matter the person, no matter their beliefs.
