The long-awaited night of nights for the Australian music industry – otherwise known as the 2023 ARIA Awards – has taken place, and there were a few artists who probably needed help carrying all their gongs home.
Amongst the biggest winners of the night was Troye Sivan who took home four trophies, and Genesis Owusu, who scored three. Both G Flip and Forest Claudette won two each.
