Mark March 23rd in your diary for a perfect day in the park listening to awesome music. Community radio station RTRFM’s annual Neon Picnic will see a diverse range of musicians take to the stage for a family friendly event.
On the bill is Jere Sosa, with his relaxed Argentinian grooves, the indie pop magic of The Struggling Kings (pictured)Â and local music troubadour Michael Savage.
The chilled out party will continue with Perth’s finest saxophone quartet Meraki, the out of this world sounds of Fourth State and the straight reggae jams of Zarm.
