About the Register
The Need
The WMA is often asked by associations, festivals, charities, church groups, private individuals, hotels, clubs, radio stations and the like if they can provide bands, duos, solo artists or other acts for ongoing, or one-off performances. In order to meet this demand and to be proactive in providing this information to anyone wanting live music, the WMA is putting together a band and act register for members of the association.
WMA in not an Agent
The WMA cannot act as agent, manager, broker or in any other capacity to promote your band. The Association will act merely as a gatherer and distributor of information. Should you wish to receive payment for your entertainment services, it will be up to you to do the necessary negotiations with any party who contacts your nominated contact person. It is a good idea to remember that professional acts often do not get paid but make money from CD sales etc.

So WMA Members please register yourselves and your bands so that we can include you in the Register. As more bands and acts are listed, the Register will become a popular reference, so make sure you are in it.

Cruise Control
Players |
A unique acoustic presentation of covers and originals, it’s the full service with a mix of easy cruisin’ laid back ballads, “in-ya-face”, “foot-stompin’” rhythms, and a selection of some of those unforgettable memory tuggin’ favourites. Available – Weekly |
The Descendants
Players |
The Descendants specialise in classic covers from the best years of rock. We love all kinds of music, but we have a leaning towards pop/rock classics from the 60s and 70s. Beatles to Rose Tattoo probably says enough! But hey, if it sounds good to our ears, we’ll play it. We’re a classic pub band but happy to play parties, weddings, festivals or any other excuse for a dance and a sing along. Available – Fortnightly |
Flashback
Players |
Flashback are a "Nostalgia" band specialising in playing 50's & 60's Rock'n'Roll - both vocals and instrumentals. The Group plays instrumentals originally recorded by Groups such as The Shadows, Ventures, Duane Eddy, & The Fireballs, as well as vocals originally recorded by such artists as Elvis, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Everly Brothers and Eddy Cochran. Available – Monthly |
Not Dead Yet
Players |
We are a group of seasoned players who in our past lives, have gigged around the country and overseas. Our Name, Not Dead Yet – borrowed from a Styx song – declares that we remember the sixties and seventies and just like the music from those golden years we are still going strong! Our fondness for classic rock and pop has brought us together, and that is what we play, affectionately and authentically – with a sprinkling of more contemporary material too. Available – Weekly |
Whiskey Kiss Players |
A newly formed unit playing bitter sweet acoustics; mostly Americana and Country Rock, some originals coming in the near future. Essentially a trio, Whiskey Kiss is part of the “Loose Acoustic Road Show”. So, you get 3 or 4 on stage (Fiddle and Bass). Major influences include: John Fogerty, Ross Ryan, Mark Seymour, Byrds, Eagles, Joni Mitchell, Guy Clark, Lyle Lovett, John Prine, Paleriders and Kieran Kane. Steve and Warren have a lot of experience within the WMA – Wintersun and Caboolture Festivals, Riverstage, benefit gigs and regulars at Acoustic Warriors and the occasional Band Day. Also have played pubs, clubs, restaurants and parties – available for work – (preferably paid) but we are in it for the music and fun. Available – Weekly |
