The countdown is on to Coast FM’s Sounds of the Coast, with the free event set to feature eight hours of local solo performers, duets, pop and rock bands at Terrigal Beach House from midday on Sunday, April 27.
Coast FM will be broadcasting live from the Crowne Plaza Terrigal Pacific during the afternoon.
“Coast FM has a long history of programs supporting local music talent,” station manager Sarah Warry said.
“So, we are excited for the opportunity to present a non-stop showcase of local bands delivering amazing local sounds.
“Whatever music style you’re into – pop, rock, jazz, country, blues or reggae – Coast FM’s Sounds of the Coast will have you foot-tapping for eight hours – and it’s free.”
The music festival will be headlined by Aussie Anthems – one of the nation’s leading Oz Rock Tribute Shows.
Aussie Anthems frontman and Central Coast local, David Tapp, said the event was an outstanding innovation.
“I’m grateful we’ve been able to support Coast FM’s Sounds of the Coast,” he said.
“It will certainly highlight what is an abundance of musical talent on the Central Coast.
“We’re happy to give our time to this free event because we know what it will bring to the community and to budding musicians in the area.”
Other local talent performing on the day will include Capital Country Music Award winner, Faith Williams, who recently won Song of the Year with her debut release Queen of Hearts.
She will be followed by reggae virtuosos Kuta Groove Party Band, then jazz blues duet, Rodric White and Corina Jones.
The entertainment will continue with vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Ivona Rose bringing some folk/pop and a little bit of country to the afternoon.
The line-up is rounded out with the local talent of four popular and high energy cover bands – The Retrospectives, Aussie Anthems, Electric Mayhem and The Camrys.
The event will be staged at Terrigal Beach House – the iconic venue adjoining Crowne Plaza Terrigal Pacific.
Venue General Manager of Terrigal Beach House, Locky Heffernan, said the venue championed local music and grassroots talent.
“As a venue that celebrates our community coming together for good times, we’re thrilled to join forces for this awesome day of live music,” he said.
