Sandbelt Hotel UARS – Sat 23rd March

We’ll be kicking off the Ultimate American Rock Show’s year with our first show at the Sandbelt Hotel this coming March. The Sandbelt Hotel hosted some pretty iconic acts over the last 20+ years and many who have been, are now great lovers of the live music scene in Melbourne. It’s that generation that now looks for great acts, good food and a friendly environment and that’s exactly what you’ll get at this venue.

The Ultimate American Rock Show are excited to be performing at this great venue and look forward to sharing with you a night of nostalgia, as we bring you the hits from some of the greatest rock artists the USA has ever produced!

Brighter Days Festival – Fri 8th Mar

The Brighter Days Festival is 3 days of family friendly fun held annually in the Victorian township of Bright, on the Labour Day Weekend in March each year. It all started when a group of like minded friends whose interests include bikes, cars and music formed a committee to organise the inaugural “Brighter Days” event. In the first year in excess of $32,000 was raised for two chosen children’s charities, and now the Brighter Days Foundation have added a third charity and donated well in excess of one million dollars – a figure the foundation could not have imagined, when starting back in 2013! They hope to continue to raise more funds each year through natural growth and as awareness of the annual event develops. The name obviously is two fold; the first, that the event is held in Bright, the second is in the hope that we can make a “brighter day” for some kids.

Scarecrow – The Mellencamp Show are excited to be participating in the festival & we’ll be performing on the Friday night approx 8.45pm, hope you can join us!

There’s no ticket entry cost, however patrons are requested to purchase a $10.00 wristband donation (Adult) or $5 wristband donation (Child under 16), upon entry to the festival. See you in Bright!

Scarecrow leaves nothing to chance in recreating the sounds and visual excitement that takes audiences on this whirlwind trip. The hits are all there and even Mr. Mellencamp himself has professed his pleasure at the bands musical accuracy when it comes to his songs and their performances.

We’re looking forward to kicking off 2019 with you over the long weekend at the Mulwala Ski Club. So ‘get a leg up’ & get over the border in a couple of weeks time!
