It’s been my privilege to work on the festival since day one, along with a small crew of wonderful co-workers who share a passion for music. My hope in the fi rst year was to create an event that was enjoyable for the musicians, the locals and 6am–6.30pm Mon–Fri, 7am–6pm Sat & Sun music fans who travelled to the event. What 44 Dalley St Mullum I didn’t foresee was just how many locals Ph 6684 2315 are music fans. This has made my job easier than it might have otherwise been, and helped create a festival that is unique in its friendly, welcoming atmosphere. The fact our audience actually love music has meant each year I’ve been able to increasingly program an artistically interesting and challenging lineup, rather than just a narrow range of artists popular at the time. I like Billi’s Indian Restaurant presents... to think the Mullum Music Festival takes local choir led by Janet Swain.
