Gig: E-05 Jump! Kids Program lunch break

Today we went on a road trip down to Hobart and played at the Energizer Conference 2005 kids program, otherwise known as Jump! We played from 12:15 until about 12:50, and were well received by the kids there. :) They had been there two or three days already, and were somewhat preoccupied with eating lunch, but they got into the music nonetheless.

Although it was a fairly long drive for a relatively short gig, there were a lot of kids there (maybe around 100?) and also lots of children's workers from around Tasmania, so it was good to make some contacts, especially what with plans afoot for our upcoming Tour! ...more on that later!

Oddsox FAQ

Here's what you need to know about Oddsox:

What exactly is Oddsox and who do you play for?
Oddsox is a Christian band for children based in Launceston, Tasmania. Our songs and shows are aimed at primary school aged children and are highly interactive and fun! The majority of the songs we perform are Oddsox originals.

Through performance, we aim to teach children about Jesus, encouraging them to call Him their friend and get to know Him better each day.

Where do you play?
Churches, schools, conferences - you name it. Anywhere you might find children and families is a potential venue for an Oddsox show. We have previously traveled throughout Tasmania and any location is a possibility. We are able to perform indoors or outdoors (provided we have a level surface and electricity) and if required, can bring all the equipment we need.

Who is in Oddsox?
Oddsox is:

• Matt Yost, Vocals
  
• Kylie Goodger, Vocals
  
• Isaac Lee, Guitar
  
• Andrew Nairn, Bass Guitar

• Ben Frearson, Drums
  

How much will it cost?
Oddsox's rates vary considerably from event to event. Our general fee is $150 per hour. Additional travel costs may apply depending on location. All proceeds go back into the band, towards equipment, hire costs etc. If you are unsure about how much you can afford, contact us and we will discuss possibilities. We don’t like to let lack of funds prevent us from playing for you!

Are you any good? Who can recommend you?
We have lots of positive feedback from gigs we've played at. Take a look at some Recommendations people have written.

What promotional material do you have?
Promotional materials can be found on the Downloads page.

How do you spell Oddsox?
Like that. NOT "Odd Sox", "Odd Socks", "ODDSOX" and not with "The" in front of it! We are simply "Oddsox"... Thanks ;)
