Australian Youth Band Southern Stars

Formed in 1978, the Australian Youth Band is the premier youth marching/concert band in Melbourne and Victoria. The band has toured extensively over recent years, with highlights being the Beijing Olympics (2008) and Beijing International Youth Festival (2005). Last year, the band toured North America where they performed at the San Francisco Pride Parade, Disneyland and Universal Studios, and the July 4th Independence Day parade in San Diego. The Band is formed by over 30 young musicians aged between 13 and 18 from all over Australia.

Following on the success of the band’s North American tour last year, the band looks forward to its Malaysian tour in 2012 where George Town will be the last stop before returning home!
