Bands get set to battle

WORD and Mouth is proud to announce the FReeZA Push Heat will again go ahead this year on Friday, August 24 from 6pm to 11pm, in the McIntosh Centre at the Shepparton Showgrounds.

The event is aimed at people between the ages of 12-25, but anyone is welcome to come along and watch Shepparton’s young and talented musicians on display.

Word and Mouth project manager, Jim Gow said, “This event is fantastic for the people of Shepparton due to the high interest they have in music.

“We continue to engage young people by putting on a range of events in Greater Shepparton. Nearly weekly we hear that there is nothing to do in the area for our youth and we are constantly looking to change that.”

“This event has been in high demand since the same time last year. Music events are always very popular.”

Jamie Lea of JL Productions said, “Soloists, duos and trios are all welcome to compete. The winners will have a range of opportunities open up for them, including other local live performance opportunities in the next 6-12 months.”

Entry on the night is $5 for the five hours of entertainment. Find Word and Mouth on Facebook for more details.
