The Victorian valleys will come alive this spring to the sound of music coming from intimate venues, rural hotels and regional halls in a show of strength, support, love and commitment to extraordinary communities affected by the floods of October 2022.
The historic Tallarook Mechanics Institute will host a series of events, including Deadly in the TMI, featuring Dan Sultan and Madi Colville-Walker on October 7, while Pyrenees Hideout presents Connection, with Bill Chambers, Marcus Cassells and The BAHA Collective on October 28.
Euroa Music Festival presents FLOW on October 21, with acts such as Vaudeville Smash, The Fauves and Soaked Oats, plus many more. Tickets go on sale on Friday, July 14.
Thirty live music events will be held at local venues for communities to revive and gather after a year of cleaning up and rebuilding after floods impacted the region.
Other locations include Pyramid Hill, Boort, Newbridge, Rochester, Bridgewater, Mooroopna, Baringhup, Horsham and the Pyrenees.
The events are part of Music Victoria’s Live Music for Flood Recovery program, supported by Creative Victoria.
Music Victoria chief executive Simone Schinkel said he was excited to see an incredible array of events taking place all over the state.
“These events will provide a place for people to gather, reconnect and enjoy live music, which is such an important part of the recovery process for these communities,” she said.
