Donations resulting from our 35th Anniversary Quiz night are continuing and last week Graham was privileged to deliver musical equipment to the value of $2,708.00 to the Carson Street School in East Victoria Park for kids with special needs. Their needs were for a Makala ukulele for use by their music specialist in the classroom, as well as a Roland monitor amplifier and 6 of these very cool carved Toca Djembes mounted on special stands that will allow kids in wheelchairs to access them more easily & more fully particpate in the music sessions. Music Specialist Tim Schoenmaker was on hand along with student Isabelle McIntyre to accept delivery & to test one of the djembes. As you can see, it looks like they are going to be a very popular & useful donation! read more ›

Jacob was of course using his Concept-purchased Custom Shop '64 Jazzmaster through his Fender Blues Deluxe on the night of the final, which we’d like to think may have helped get him over the line! read more ›

Enter Concept Music! read more ›
