POWERAGE
“A hard rockin’ band with a youthful edge”
The Crawford and Minett brothers whose ages range from 13 to 17 have been performing rock classics in venues in Newcastle and the Hunter since early 2005.
Boosted by stage storming performances on the NRL Footy show at their then very young ages, the boys have continued to grow and move on to develop their own brand of no frills hard rocking original music which they now perform in 2008.
The band which is based in the Maitland area west of Newcastle, although starting from such a young age, have now been together for nearly four years and are committed to writing power rock songs and taking their music to the world. Not only that, but the band’s music has continued to receive a huge amount of positive feedback wherever they go and has them now standing firm in not only their belief in the quality of their music but themselves and that they will make a career from their passion.
