NYE 2024: On the Deck with Midnight Fireworks

No Comments Gigs

FPV 2024 Fireworks Magnetic island – by Oliver Scheele

Imagine this: a deck perched on the water’s edge, the ocean’s gentle sway as our backdrop, and the excitement buzzing as the clock strikes midnight. Yes friends, we’re recounting our unforgettable night, set against the backdrop of a fireworks display painting the midnight sky.

As a band, we’ve seen our fair share of memorable gigs, but this one was truly exceptional. Nestled in the heart of North Queensland paradise, Magnetic Island’s Peppers Blue on Blue Resort deck offered an intimate space against the scenic beauty of the harbor. As midnight approached, the sky burst into a kaleidoscope of colours, fireworks dazzling the night.

As we played on, rain threatened, yet it only added to the drama. The gentle cascade of raindrops became the perfect accompaniment as the final chords faded away. Though the night ended, the memories will live on—a testament to music’s power to unite, even amidst nature’s fury.

Here’s to the nights that steal our breath, to the music that moves us, and to memories that last a lifetime.

With love and memories.

Sailing into the Night: MI Race Week

No Comments Gigs

Saturday night was pure magic for us as we graced the Peppers Blue on Blue Resort stage during Sealink Magnetic Island Race Week. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the resort, club and the Race Week committee for inviting us to be part of such an unforgettable event. It was an evening of music, camaraderie, and the vibrant spirit of Race Week.

We were present for the daily presentations from Day 2 of Sailing with John Stokes – Commodore of the Townsville Yacht Club for the Townsville City Council Race Day, handing out the prizes to lucky winners and placegetters. Being amidst the passion and dedication of the sailors added a special touch to the festivities.

The atmosphere was electric, with celebration and joy throughout the night. Our music echoed across the water as friends and family gathered to dance and revel in the moment. The spirit of camaraderie was palpable, uniting locals and visitors alike in their shared love for sailing and music. The party gained momentum as the night progressed, with the dance floor alive and the spirits souring.

It was an honour and a privilege to be a part of Race Week, and the memories of that night will remain etched in our hearts for years to come. To everyone who joined us, thank you for your unwavering support and infectious enthusiasm. Your energy fueled our performance and made it an unforgettable experience. We eagerly look forward to sailing with you again soon!

Until then, may the music and the sea continue to unite us in joyous celebration.

In the heart of any vibrant music scene, the magic of live performances captivates, as melodies weave through the air, uniting hearts and souls. For us, our journey through melodies has been adorned with countless memorable gigs, among which Aley and Ben’s wedding at the serene backdrop of the Magnetic Island Country Golf Club shines brightly.

Private gigs hold a special place in our hearts, allowing us to share intimate moments with our audience, whether in the comfort of their homes or the elegance of public establishments. Among these cherished performances, Aley and Ben’s wedding night stands out as a beacon of joy and love, etched into our memories.

Underneath the stars, nestled within the expanse of the golf club, an elevated area set the stage with an outside dance floor, adorned with twinkling lights. As the night unfolded, the atmosphere was electric with anticipation and excitement. Aley and Ben, the epitome of elegance and grace, stood radiant amidst their loved ones, their smiles illuminating the entire venue with warmth. As our melodies filled the air, we witnessed the power of music to unite hearts and souls. Later, the dance floor came alive with laughter and happiness, a testament to the love that surrounded us.

In the end, it is moments like these that remind us why we do what we do – to spread joy, to celebrate love, and to create memories that will last a lifetime. And for that, we are eternally grateful.

Here’s to love, laughter, and the timeless magic of music.

Making Music in 2021-22

No Comments News

As a duo we’ve enjoyed some relaxed island gigs – at Sandi’s, Picnic Bay Hotel, the Magnetic Island Markets, and hosted karaoke at Amaroo On Mandalay. We’ve also partied some private gigs at the Magnetic Island Bowls Club, Magnetic Island Golf Club, Amaroo On Mandalay, Sandis, holiday homes, local residences, and weekend trips off the island.

For the 4-piece it’s been a great start – making music at Sandi’s Octoberfest, and Picnic Bay Hotel‘s Melbourne Cup, Townsville Airport Father’s Day and New Year’s Eve. The team also helped out at some charity events; the Arcadian Surf Life Saving Club‘s Good Friday at the Bay Party and managing the stage for ‘Dance for Dignity’, a sold-out charity ball for Share the Dignity – great work to all involved!

We love that we can do these around Maggie and have the opportunities to explore NQ 🙂
