‘Kids Music That Doesn’t Suck!’ Zoë Foster Blake, children’s author.

Sunday 13 March | 1:30PM | GPAC Theatre

Join much-loved children’s band the Teeny Tiny Stevies as they perform ‘I Ate a Rainbow’, ‘Boy or Girl Colour’ and ‘Boss of My Own Body’, plus a selection of favourite songs from their brand-new album.  

Featuring irresistible melodies and helpful tips for navigating life’s little challenges, sisters Byll and Beth perform music that keeps kids entertained without driving parents crazy.

This gig will be super fun for the whole family! 

‘Teeny Tiny Stevies have achieved the impossible – they have made children’s music that won’t rob adults of their will to live.’ The Brisbane Times

Presented in partnership with TEG VAN EGMOND
