SCOTSO (Surf Coast Old Time Street Orchestra) is open for new members
An 'old time street orchestra' in the Surf Coast area. The aim is to get people together to play for fun, learn some American and Celtic folk tunes, (with possibly some Swing or other genres of tunes..) and maybe at some stage to do some performances in our local communities.
The instrumentation that we're thinking of is fiddle, mandolin, guitar, banjo, cello, ukulele, whistles or flutes and more (all musicians welcome) The aim is to create a supportive space where everyone feels welcome to 'have a go' at being part of a band. This will be a space where anyone can brave bringing rusty instruments back to life.... The more the merrier attitude. Every note, and every squawk adds depth to our overall sound.
This opportunity is open to all people wanting to play music for fun and to learn some 'groovy tunes'. The proposed venue will be in Bellbrae. People from Torquay to Lorne… we want YOU to join us! Bring your instruments. AND, no, you do not need to read 'note' music!! 'Ear' learners very welcome.
Spread the word! SCOTSO meets every second Sunday in the month. For dates and times of sessions, drop us a line!
