Brimbank guitarists can embrace their inner rock god with the launch of Those Who Rock.
The community project involves amateur guitarists across Melbourne rehearsing a song in their local area ahead of a showcase night on the Hamer Hall stage on March 24.
The project is the brainchild of musician Joseph Farrell, who said it was a chance for guitarists all over Melbourne to live out their dream.
“How often do you get a chance to play at the Arts Centre in front of a big crowd?” he said.
Rehearsals will run at various community locations across Melbourne, with each site learning a different song to perform. St Albans’ Bowery Theatre will be used throughout February as the rehearsal space, with Metallica’s
Enter Sandman the song of choice for Brimbank. At the finale, all guitarists will join on stage to perform AC/DC’s classic For Those About To Rock.
Farrell said it was a project for all skill levels, and called on anyone with music in their heart to get involved.
“It’s going to be a lot of fun, and something memorable at the end of it which is a great thing to be a part of.”
