WHAT is Sound Feast you may ask? It’s a free regular concert at The J Theatre featuring awesome bands and an all-ages open mic section.
They have fantastic high quality sound and lighting to give both performers and the audience a whole concert experience and the next Sound Feast is set to go off on Friday night 14 October.
The open mic section starts at 6pm (sign on 5.30pm) followed by the live bands until 11pm. The incredible standard of the open mic performers at Sound Feast constantly amazes the crowd.
Event organiser Jay Bishoff ran Peregian Originals for more than a decade.
“My vision for Sound Feast is kind of like an indoor, evening concert version of Peregian Originals.
“Come enjoy these terrific acts live, at Noosa’s premier concert venue, free! And we got red bean bag couches in front of the stage, too,” he said.
Australian and international solo performer Hailey Calvert shines among the line-up on Friday night.
Hailey recently found new fans after performing at Woodford Folk Festival, Red Deer Festival and Bendigo Blues and Roots Festival, as well as playing to packed rooms in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.
In 2013, she received a Queensland Music Awards nomination for her song ‘Take Me Home’.
“Hailey had the whole room in a trance with her intricate guitar picking floating underneath her strong, Natalie Merchant-rich vocals.
“This cleverly crafted song was a great opener, showcasing her strengths as a confident and intense musician,” said Matt Schrader, from the Australian Musicians Network.
Come along to this awesome free event at The J, and enjoy a full bar and friendly staff this Friday night 14 October.
