On Friday August 1, Adelaide’s West End came alive as Scouted 2025 took over Jive, The Grace Emily & The Ed Castle, showcasing 13 of South Australia’s best emerging artists in an unforgettable night of live music. The lineup consisted of:
Ms Chipeta
RENAÉ
Scott Rathman Jnr
Loyal fans, Indie-Con delegates & music lovers packed all three venues braving the winter chill to be a part of this vibrant annual celebration of SA’s unsigned talent.
Scouted isn’t just any ordinary gig, it’s a launchpad. For the artists involved, it was a chance to connect with industry representatives through Indie-Con, while also dazzling them (and a sold-out crowd) with dynamic performances and undeniable stage presence.
This year’s energy was electric: busy dancefloors to excited dashes between venues, it created an atmosphere that felt both intimate and charged. From genre-bending pop hooks to raw hip-hop lyricism, every act brought something unique and powerful to the stage.
We couldn’t be prouder of the talent that shone at Scouted 2025. A huge congratulations to all the artists, your hard work, creativity and passion left us all in awe.
A special thankyou to the venues Jive, The Grace Emily & The Ed Castle for opening your doors to our showcase and providing such perfect spaces for the night.
And of course, thank you to every single person who came out to support local music, your energy is what makes nights like this so special.
