Mayor Sue Heins said it was a great opportunity for young people to perform in front of a live audience.
“Every year we’re blown away by the level of young talent that comes through Northern Composure,” she said.
“For more than 20 years, this competition has been the Northern Beaches’ biggest platform for up-and-coming bands, helping launch the careers of some incredible artists. We’re excited to see which bands will step up this year and chase their dreams of a professional music career.
“It’s a chance for young bands to sharpen their skills, perform live in front of their peers and compete for an incredible music and marketing prize package. It’s all about getting involved and giving it a go.”
Past entrants of Northern Composure include well-known artists Ocean Alley, Lime Cordiale, Dear Seattle, The Rions, Crocodylus, C.O.F.F.I.N and Edgecliff.
