A sold-out crowd filled Eumundi State School Hall on 22 August as young Sunshine Coast musicians celebrated 10yrs of Eumundi School of Music (ESOM) with a lively showcase of local talent, topped off by a special performance from acclaimed singer-songwriter Kate Miller-Heidke.
Founded by 5-time ARIA Award winner Katie Noonan ESOM is marking a decade of helping young musicians pursue their dreams through tuition, mentoring and performance opportunities. Each year, aspiring artists work one-on-one with professional musicians for 3 months before taking the stage at the end-of-program concert.
Saturday night’s concert unfolded as a mini-festival, featuring 2026 ESOM bands Compass and Real Creations, teen band Red Bin Chicken, showband Solidified, and local band Soleil, which formed through ESOM. A special reunion band of alumni also returned for a 1-night-only performance, bringing together former students from across the program’s 10yr history.
Katie said she was incredibly proud of the 51 young rockers who performed and of how far ESOM had come since it began.
“Seeing a full house and an audience with full hearts was the perfect way to celebrate 10yrs of ESOM,” said Katie. “The young musicians absolutely rocked the stage – giving it everything they had, playing their hearts out and showing just how much talent, passion and energy they have.”
She said watching ESOM grow and flourish over the past decade had been enormously rewarding, with more than 300 young people taking part in the program, forming bands, building confidence and developing lifelong friendships through music.
“ESOM has always been about community, creativity and the joy of making music. Celebrating this milestone with our students, alumni, families and supporters has been incredibly special,” said Katie.
Katie also thanked Kate Miller-Heidke and her husband and musical collaborator Keir Nuttall for sharing their experience with the next generation.
“Kate and Keir brought extraordinary musical talent and experience to the celebration, and it was fantastic to see our students share the stage with them,” she said. “Seeing our young musicians step up, perform with confidence and embrace the opportunity was a wonderful way to mark ESOM’s 10th anniversary.” ...

Noosa Arts Theatre (NAT) has a lively program lined up between now and the new year, beginning with the much-loved musical, You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown.
Based on Charles M Schulz’s beloved Peanuts characters, the musical was created by Clark Gesner and premiered Off-Broadway in 1967. Built around a series of short scenes, each with its own song, the show ran for more than 1,500 performances. Its 1999 Broadway revival introduced new songs by Andrew Lippa.
To celebrate the 75th Anniversary of Peanuts cartoons, the Melbourne Comedy Festival featured a special production in April 2025 at the MC Showroom in Prahran.
From 11-27 September, audiences can join the gang at NAT in this fun-filled production directed by Jordan Jeckells. Charlie Brown is played by Charlie Kelly-Mandalis, still dreaming of the Little Red-Haired Girl. His sister Sally is played by Bianca Pinkney, while Bridie Delaney appears as Lucy, determined to wean Linus, played by Thomas Loughran, from his blanket. Noah Kelly-Mandalis takes on the role of piano-playing Schroeder, and Laeni Rees appears as Snoopy, still fantasising about the Red Baron.
This delightful musical proves that whatever life throws at us, with kindness, acceptance and perseverance, there is happiness and hope in simple things.
