There is provided a liquid discharge apparatus including: a liquid discharge head having a nozzle; an electrode facing the nozzle; a power supply which generates a potential difference between the liquid discharge head and the electrode; a first output unit which outputs a first signal in accordance with an electric change in a case that the liquid discharge head is caused to perform inspection driving; a low-pass filter; a second output unit; a high-pass filter; a third output unit; and a controller. The controller executes determination as to whether or not the liquid is normally discharged from the nozzle, based on the first signal; and determination as to whether or not a short circuit occurs between the liquid discharge head and the electrode, based on a second signal output from the second output unit and a third signal output from the third output unit.
