Leanne de Souza has contributed to the business of Australian music and arts since the early 1990s. She is respected for her work as an artist manager, industry leader and advocate. In 2022 she is busy with her roles as co-owner of the music-technology company Nightlife Music, trustee of the Qld Performing Arts Centre (QPAC) and Chair of the Advisory Board for the Electronic Music Conference (EMC). Music, and writing about music, have been her personal and professional way finders for decades - with the retirement of the inspired convergence of music and literature, a Rock and Roll Writers Festival in 2020 Leanne is proud to be a patron of the inaugural Music Writers Lab.

MusicNT and the Australia Council for the Arts are extremely thankful for the passion and contribution from our foundation patron Leanne de Souza.
