The SoundSoul event, hosted by The Skill Engineer in April as part of Youth Week NSW, brought together the vibrant energies of youth and families at Lake Munmorah and surrounding areas.
Featuring Triple J unearthed legends Pilot Buffalo alongside an array of local performers and community services, SoundSoul was a huge success, drawing in more than 200 attendees.
The event aimed to foster social inclusion and provide engaging activities for youth and families in areas where such opportunities are limited.
“We could not have anticipated the overwhelming response to SoundSoul,” The Skill Engineer Creative Co-ordinator Sharon Aldrick said.
“With more than 220 people in attendance, it was testament to the collaborative efforts of our partners and the enthusiasm of the community.”
SoundSoul was made possible through the generous support and participation of 15 local services, including Song Lab, yspace Central Coast, and Central Coast Council among others, alongside dedicated youth volunteers.
The event kicked off with a series of performances and workshops, including soul-stirring sets by Jack Crouch, Maya Simpson, UV Ultraviolet Band, and Oli Byrnes, among others.
Attendees were treated to a DJ workshop led by Cody, followed by a stellar performance by Pilot Buffalo to close out the event.
“It was truly a joyous day for all involved,” Aldrick said.
“The smiles and positive energy radiating from the participants underscored the impact of events like SoundSoul in our community.”
SoundSoul not only provided entertainment but also served as a platform for connection and empowerment, reinforcing the importance of community engagement and support for youth initiatives.
The overwhelming feedback received from partners and attendees alike has sparked discussions of future collaborations to continue fostering a vibrant and inclusive community on the northern part of the Central Coast.
