After rounding up our most played tracks of the year, we were pretty stoked to see so many local gems front and centre. Now we’ve tallied up our second end of year list for you – FBi’s most played artists of 2017, and it’s a cracker.

Over-delivering on our promise of 50% Australian music (in green), with well over half of that from Sydney (starred*), this year’s local representation featured plenty of returning favourites alongside even more ones to watch. Here are the acts we haven’t been able to get enough of!

Special thanks to AMRAP (the Australian Music Radio Airplay Project) for the live playlists we use online. They support us every day in our effort to bring you great Australian music.
