WAM's Regional program supports and develops regional WA music, through building, maintaining and developing relationships with many regional music organisations, groups and individuals throughout rural and remote Western Australia.

In 2006, WAM's Regional program secured funding from the Regional Arts Fund through Country Arts WA, enabling WAM to staff the Regional Officer position full-time and to provide travel and project funding. Projects include extensive, professional music industry workshops across the state, plus regional roundtable meetings to support and advise musicians and local industry workers of all ages.

WAM’s Regional program has also developed a recording tuition project, which has now been conducted in The Pilbara region (2006) and the world heritage area of Shark Bay (2008), both culminating local music compilation CDs. One of the Pilbara region acts recorded during a ‘Sounds of’ project won a triple j unearthed competition, with the track they recorded during the program.

	The Sounds of the Pilbara concept was designed by WAM to provide sound recording and producing skills for emerging engineers in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. The project placed two professional engineer/producers, Shaun O'Callaghan and George Nikoloudis, in Karratha to conduct a 14 day workshop with six engineers recording five acts from the Pilbara region in a 'home environment'.

TRACK 4 Negative Solitude (Now Secerno) "Forever" This song Won triple J unearthed and the band played with Powderfinger, The Grates + Muph & Plutonic @ triple J's AWOL concert in Karratha.
