Council, has employed six local musicians and music director Jeremy Boulton to produce a brand new song and music video to promote Make Music Day. The artists include local folk trio Dear Violet, Erin Hand, Tim Moxey and Sako Dermenjian.

I just love it,’’ Wollongong Lord Mayor Councillor Gordon Bradbery AM said. “I applaud these artists for coming onboard and getting involved in this creative challenge. Now it’s time for the rest of Wollongong to hear their song, support their courage, and to get out and make some music next Sunday.’’ In Our Hands will debut on the City of Wollongong and Creative Wollongong Facebook pages on Sunday 21 June. On this date there will also be free live music in Globe Lane, Wollongong between 12 noon-2pm.
