Young musicians to shine at SpringLoaded

Youth event: SpringLoaded is on Friday, September 30.

Echuca Moama Youth Hub will celebrate young musicians with SpringLoaded on Friday, September 30.

The hub is hosting SpringLoaded, a free live music event, in the pop-up park to recognise gifted young musicians.

With performances from Dilmac Entertainment, there will be bands with singers playing popular music that people from all ages will love.

Brett Henderson from the Echuca Moama Youth Hub said the motivation for this event was to create a platform for young people to perform and for young audiences to be inspired.

“We want to be able to provide a unique opportunity for young people to engage in,” Mr Henderson said.

Tyler and Tracie, Venice and the Band and Jiara Martins are among those who are set to take centre stage at the event.

The community collaborated to help make the SpringLoaded idea become a reality. Contributors such as Dilmac, Campaspe Shire Council and the Victorian Government worked with Echuca Moama Youth Hub to select music, location, publicity, and organise funding for what is expected to be an incredible afternoon.

Mr Henderson said this was the first time Echuca held an event like SpringLoaded, but hub president Maree Armstrong was no stranger to planning events.

“Maree has done an outstanding job, including raising funds and promoting the youth hub,” he said.

Everyone is welcome to come along and listen to the sweet sounds of the performers.

SpringLoaded will be held at the Echuca Murray Esplanade on Friday, September 30, from 3-5pm.
