Wizard weaves his musical magic

And a 1, 2, 3 … are you ready? The Frankston Music Festival 2017 is coming your way on April 28-30.

The official face of the inaugural festival is the Mornington Peninsula Piano Wizard (Andrew Farrell). Andrew attended Frankston Tech and still calls the Peninsula home. The Wizard is one of the most popular and talented festival musicians in Australia and New Zealand, even boasting fans in North America, and his powerful presence takes control of the crowds whenever he performs. Also in the spotlight will be other talented local and international performers in a combination of paid and free shows.

As a prelude to the main performances, a few pop-up events will appear over the weeks leading up to the festival. They are set to thrill and provide a snippet of what you’ll experience over the festival weekend.

The festival officially opens with a gala night at Frankston’s Functions by the Bay featuring two of Melbourne’s most talented divas: Fem Belling (starred as Liza Minnelli in The Boy From Oz)and Yvette Johansson - they can sing!

Wine, dine and boogie with The Jackson Four at the Frankston Bowling Club on Saturday night.

The festival will not only connect the community through live music but will also provide some comedy, with Rod Quantock and his chook escorting Melbourne patrons on The Frankston Music Festival’s own Blues Express train from Melbourne to be greeted by the Mornington Peninsula Piano Wizard at the Groove Train in Wells St. Rod will perform A Funnier Thing Happened On The Way To Frankston for two shows at Cube 37 on Sunday, April 30.
