Jackson and Callum McPartlane might look a wee bit young to be going on tour, aye? Together they are Bo’Ness, named after their grandmother’s home town in Scotland.

These Mornington Peninsula identical twins remain on a high after recently opening as the support band for Reece Mastin. They are back home and continuing to practise religiously with their godfather Adam Brand’s guitar as Adam looks on and longs to tour with them too.

Their mum, Sally, received an amazing surprise over five years ago. Having taught themselves to harmonise perfectly and secretly practising in their bedrooms (and bathroom to reach those acoustic goals) they asked her to listen to them sing. “I said ‘Yeah, sure’ but thought ‘Oh dear, what am I in for?’ Fair to say I was shocked,” says Sally.

While setting up for the photoshoot with Frankly Frankston, the pair were receiving coins before they even opened their mouths to sing. And when they do, you know why. As they frequent Shannon Mall in Frankston the unstoppable pair have become recognisable and the money earned goes (mostly) back into their craft. Their proud mum explains that once they took their daily takings straight to the shops to spoil her with a new pair of runners she’d been eyeing.

“It’s just who they are; they often give some money to the homeless too,” Sally says.

They are double trouble, with a passion to never stop improving and proudly landing roles in their school production of Grease within a week of starting Year 7 (and the only Year 7s with major roles, we might add).

These mature young boys hold their own on stage, practise every day and busk twice a week. On a recent trip, the twins took their guitars with them and left their iPads at home (which is a feat even for adults).

Bo’Ness are inspired by the Beatles and get quite upset when people don’t know who they are. They also draw inspiration from Coldplay, Green Day and the television show Nashville. Callum and Jackson also play at Frankston Library and at Frankston Hospital in the dementia ward.

Taught by Bonnie Anderson (of Blackout fame), approached by The Voice Australia and singer songwriter Sam Hawksley from the Bo'Deans, they’re on track at such a young age. With industry support, family connections and their friends’ endless encouragement, nothing is stopping these humble young stars from continuing their climb to success.

If you happen to get stopped in your tracks as you pass them, a wee amount of coin will be much appreciated.
