The best performance from the ARIA Awards happened before the show even started.

The red carpet is normally all about fashion, but on this occasion, we decided to focus on people’s talents instead of what they were wearing.

Which, to be honest, is just a cover story to mask the fact that the Mamamia wanted Australia’s best musicians to give them on a private show on the 2016 ARIA Awards red carpet.

And boy, did they deliver.

Children’s entertainer and actress Justine Clarke sang so sweetly that she made everybody forget the sky had opened up and everybody was being pelted with torrential rain.

Imogen Anthony and Kyle Sandilands gave The Veronicas a red hot go while Amy and Emma Sheppard from the band Sheppard brought the (crowded) house down.

Ben Lee sung us a little tune while showing off his brilliantly bright suit, and The Wiggles proved why they are a national treasure.

Since it was the 30th annual ARIA Awards, and we were celebrating three decades of amazing Australian music, it was nice to see these performers bust out their favorite Aussie tunes.
