NOOSA alive! has done it again, you can’t beat the $35 GA admission price.
Wesley Dean went from winning the sixth Season of Australian Idol, living in sunny Noosa to pack up his family and relocated to Nashville in 2001 following his dream of tackling the Country Music scene.
A brave heart indeed. Formally known as Wes Carr, Wesley Dean’s new album ‘Music From Crazy Hearts’ is a raw but brilliant creation.
Andrew Stafford said, “We welcome Wesley Dean back to Noosa and can’t wait to hear his poetic Crazy Hearts journey under the Bendigo Bank Marquee on Noosa’s Main Beach.”
“He is a brave man, sacrificing his family’s comfortable life in Noosa to follow his dream to tackle the US country scene, I am sure there would be many stories to tell.
“Wes’ music speaks grit, he is all in and I can’t wait to hear the live performance. You can’t bottle passion, so we are bringing it to the Bendigo Bank Marquee on Noosa’s iconic Main Beach. I imagine Wesley Dean’s supportive wife would be just as interesting to hear from.”
Day 2 of Seaside Vibes with sand under foot welcomes a line up of DJ’s, De Saint, Joskie, Greg Sara and Tilly Saunders supporting headliner Luke Millions who will lead the dance party on Noosa’s Main Beach Saturday 20 July.
