Beyond Education School Hols at NSS Once again NSS was the place to be for school holidays. ETI programs ranged from “come and try” where students new and old had the opportunity to try something new. Drum Jam was on offer and ETI again was in the studios. Don’t let your school holidays go by without experiencing the ETI difference.

ETI can also run programs for OSHC and YMCAs. If your local community or school would like to host ETI during the school holidays please give ETI a call on 1800 384 583.

AT ETI WE GO BEYOND MUSIC EDUCATION TO OFFER UNIQUE OPPORTUNITIES TO HELP YOU CREATE YOUR DREAM! Jacob Star of the PINK Show When an international rockstar offers you an opportunity you take it. That was the lesson Jacob taught us the other night when he got up and played at the Pink Band Clinic. For his effort he got a limited edition Mark Schulman signature snare.

Well done Jacob!

ETI _STUD EN T PROFILE, ELLIS SURIDGE

Ellis has been with ETI before ETI was ETI! He’s one of the original members of the crew.

Ellis has continued to grow and develop and doesn’t fail to give it his best.

A regular ETI volunteer, Ellis can regularly be seen assisting at ETI events as a roady, a drum tech, a sound and lights tech and anything else that he can help with.

Ellis’s parents have been fantastic supports of Ellis and ETI and continue to be seen at ETI events. Ellis has become an accomplished drummer. Terapai Richmond (Guy Sebastian, DIG, Whitlams) is his biggest influence and he can regularly be seen wandering with sticks in hand like a good drummer should.

Ellis is ready to take his drumming to the next level and is on the hunt for a band to support his talent. A little known fact is Ellis’s dad is responsible for the artwork that can be found on our CEO and Founder.

“He’s turned into quite the groover!”

Pete Barter, CEO/Founder

A regular on the Adelaide band scene she can also been seen stepping in to the front spot for Mr Buzzy.

On the Radio Make sure that you keep an eye on the facebook page for details of ETI_Radio.

ETI’s awesome students did us proud on 17 July by performing live on radio.

Megan, Corey and Mel T sang, played and interviewed well. Having an opportunity to promote local music is inspiring.

Thanks to PBAFM for supporting ETI and local young talent.

ASPIRE TO INSPIRE!!

Belting out a big tune or two from Tina Turner or Christina Aguilera is just an She has quickly become an integral part of ETI educating many students one on one and also leading our “GangStars” to acapella stardom.

With a fun and enjoyable personality Meagan quickly engages her students. She puts her heart and soul into educating her ‘kids’. As a self confessed ‘Mamma Bear’ she has been known to tear up over her ‘cubs’ when they are performing.

“Meagan’s voice and ability to engage the students is inspiring.

She has the ETI Difference.”

Pete Barter, CEO/Founder

The quality of the

Student Concert YEAH!!!

entertainment at the student concert was outstanding.

A great night was had by all. After Corey warmed up the crowd, Mel T performed with Zoe on drums. Twig our resident rapper introduced us to the new ETI theme song (sensational doesn’t cut it!), Rohan Watts the voice of ETI and MC kept the night moving along nicely. Londyn was a treat with her performance. A host of drummers showed us their stuff - Jy, Lachy, Angus, Brandon and James kept the beat while the ETI house band jammed. The Barter Boys rocked it (Pete and his 6 yr son Jaxson) drum war style.

How good were the GangStars? Pitch Perfect performances including the cup song had the crowd tapping and singing along.

After a quick ukelele jam the ETI Educators showed their stuff with Ellis on drums, Rohan belted out an impromptu ‘April Sun in Cuba’ for the appreciative crowd.

Lachy got up next to show us that drummers can entertain without needing a band - electronic drums, lazers, smoke...pure entertainment.

Speaking of entertainment, Brandon, my goodness what a star! Fully choreographed by the talented drummer, on his decorated kit with strobe lights going, he certainly gave the crowd something to cheer for.

The GangStars showed us what Acapella really means!

Michael, Sam, Jasmine, and Jess, all gave show stopping performances.

Jacob fresh from his performance with Pink’s band wow’d his audience.

Megan’s performance of Skyfall was a tear jerker - what a voice!

Mel T and Meagan rounded off the night and were joined by “Absolutely Everybody” for the finale.

Brandon showed his flair for the dramatic - wow!!!

I hope you didn’t miss this amazing event. Well done to all the performers and hope to see you at Xmas!!!

Lachy - let him entertain you!!!!

Jasmine showed us her dance moves and rocked it!
