Shedding the Blues is aimed at drawing together those men in our community who share a love of music. 
It is a men’s wellbeing initiative that provides opportunities for men of a mature age to get together on a regular basis to:

  1. provide opportunities for members to share their love of, and interest in music, in order to promote a sense of belonging to a community.
  2. encourage members to connect and interact as they engage in musical pursuits that foster fellowship and musicianship, while supporting each other’s’ wellbeing and sense of purpose.
  3. provide opportunities for members to learn to play and / or  appreciate certain instruments or musical styles and forms in a safe, supportive environment.
  4.   provide the space, encouragement and support for members to create musical pieces, sounds, experiences and adventures for members and the wider community.

WELLBEING & MUSIC

We will be getting together once again throughout 2021 at a variety of venues across the Bellarine. 
You might like playing music, just listening to music, discussing different musical styles, tinkering with musical instruments or just catching up regularly with other like-minded music lovers.
The two ingredients are WELLBEING & MUSIC
We will meet together, then break into smaller Interest groups such as:
  • Playing & Performing
  • Listening & Appreciating
  • Tinkering, Maintaining and Making
  • Creating & Writing
