Members success

Congratulations to Situation Vacant (Casey & Kaleesha Messent’s duo) who were successful this year in winning the solo/duo section of the Smoke Free Rock Quest Waikato regional final (held June 19th). Casey and Kaleesha have been playing at our Jams the last few years and its fantastic to watch them grow as musicians over that time. Casey was chosen for the Waikato MAINZ musicianship award, so has the chance to win a $4,000 scholarship (has to be decided with all regional musicianship award finalists). His song “Web of air” was also named best song of the regional final. The best videos from all regions (2 per region) will allow only 9 entries into the NZ final held mid Sept, usually 7 bands and 2 solo/duos.

So well done to you both!!  We look forward to watching your continued success.
