Record floods that inundated paddocks, stranded residents and caused widespread damage weren’t enough to stop the 3rd annual Windera Music Muster from going ahead at the weekend.
Windera State School P&C president Belinda Pennell said the committee had decided the show must go on to lift spirits and take everyone’s mind off the massive clean-up taking place around Windera and Booubyjan.
Local residents joined visitors in campervans to enjoy a day of top-class country music, headlined by the the Lindsay Butler Band.
They were joined by a string of local South Burnett artists including Amber Goldsmith, Bruzz and Seascape.
The Muster is an annual fundraiser for the Windera State School P&C.
Belinda said the turnout was “fantastic” with about 300 people in attendance and about 20 campervans.
There was also a licensed bar and a kup murri, along with hot chips, burgers and a sausage sizzle.
“The weather held off and the Lindsay Butler Band were amazing,” Belinda said.
