Cooks Hillians love Cooks Hill, and a lot of us play music. Let’s build community by meeting and making friends (new and old) whilst wandering the streets of Cooks Hill finding lost pieces of talent. By all means! … enjoy a wee tipple or comestible, and BYO chair.
You don’t need to be good. You don’t need to do it for long. You don’t even need to be on this list!
Just do it. On your patch (verandah/lane/home).
2025 Program
BYO – chair/table/beverage/nibbles/listening ears.
10:30-11am – Soul Mates Band
5 piece soul band, playing soul and jazz. Not yet done public gigs, so they are looking forward to a first outing on their verandah! They look great!
North east end of the old cricket pitch (Corlette St, near corner with Parry – beware the butcher bird if riding a bike!).
11:15 – The Finnandos Family Band
Cnr Tooke and Corlette – The Fernandos are a family band with son on trumpet, Dad on guitar, and maybe even Grandad joining in! This will be their first gig together.
