Help us keep our beautiful instruments safe for years to come! 💼🚚 Road cases are crucial for protecting our instruments against physical shocks and environmental changes 🎺 These specialised cases are tailored to each instrument and their robust construction is essential for keeping our instruments in concert-ready condition! This year we are raising funds to invest in quality road cases that will allow us to safely store and transport our instruments, so we can keep bringing beautiful music to all corners of the Northern Territory! Donate today to get us back on the road! Any donation over $100 means you can choose a shape to be spray painted onto our road cases, so we take your support with us wherever we go.
