RED ALERT

Red Alert is excited about entertaining participants and supporters of Run For the Kids this year. The band feels that it is such a great cause and is honoured to be able to play a small part in helping to raise awareness and as much money as possible for the Royal Children’s Hospital.

Red Alert has been wowing audiences since the band began playing together midway through 2008. It has seven band members who are all vastly experienced entertainers and musicians. They have played for public events, corporate and private functions and venues around Melbourne. The three lead singers have been performing for years in and around Melbourne, interstate and internationally. They have fronted bands, performed on television and theatre and worked as session singers on stage and in recording studios. The instrumentalists also have wide ranging experience from playing in bands to playing in orchestras. Red Alert is energetic entertainment and its members pride themselves on being the best at what they do. The band believes that great quality music played by great quality musicians is the recipe to ensure that dance floors are packed and audiences leave having had a great time.

Big Mo the Pirate

You've heard the legend of 'Blue Beard', that was then! Now is the age of 'Big Mo'! With panache and a big, curly moustache this buccaneer will astound you with his magic, swash buckling, fire juggling, uni cycling and sword swallowing, all with his unique romantic charm. This sea dog will keep you terrified with fear and chuckling with laughter at the same time, as he performs his daring stunts. Anything could happen when he drops anchor in your lagoon.

The happy foursome has created a swag of great tunes with fun themes and positive messages, delivered in a simple language that children can enjoy. Their songs are melodic and interactive, with no shortage of familiar sayings and Aussie colloquialisms. Gee Whiz Kidz entertain with storytelling, singing, and dancing. Their music is educational and very contagious!
