This year, we’re bringing the Local Grown Stage to Tidal Sounds, giving some of our incredible local open mic talent the chance to step up and perform as part of the festival.
Born from our weekly Local Grown Open Mic at the Hoey Moey, this stage is all about showcasing emerging artists, young musicians, first-time performers and local talent from across the Coffs Coast.
Expect a mix of solo artists, duos, bands and fresh new sounds throughout the festival, giving you the chance to discover the next wave of local talent while they get the opportunity to perform in front of a festival crowd.
Tidal Sounds is about more than the headline acts. It’s about supporting live music at every level and creating real opportunities for the artists coming through next.
Come down, check out the Local Grown Stage, support our local musos and discover someone new.
