For the third year, Yamaha are awarding one lucky school in Australia their annual Great Start Grant!
This year the grant consists of enough instruments (34 brand new Yamaha instruments) and training to get a school band program Off To A Great Start plus an in-school concert with Tim! Applications are open now.
Tim announced the grant on Today and talked about the importance of music in schools, as well as his own exposure to music at a young age and in school. (Video only available in Australia)

ABC TV have announced that Tim will be joining a star-studded line-up for the live New Year’s Eve: The Night is Yours concert at the Sydney Opera House!
He’ll debut a brand new song, and play two covers – one of which will be a duet with Ben Folds. Then, he’ll lead the entire cast on the finale before the night is topped off by spectacular midnight fireworks over Sydney Harbour.
Hosts Charlie Pickering and Zan Rowe will be counting down to 2019 from 9.30pm AEDT and the dazzling concert includes performances by Tim, Ben Folds, Christine Anu, Ross Wilson, Daryl Braithwaite, Casey Donovan, Isabella Manfredi of The Preatures, Client Liaison, Baker Boy, Kaiit and G Flip. They’ll be performing their own hits along with songs from a party playlist voted for by the public.
The programme will be live-streamed worldwide on Facebook and YouTube:
Hey! This year, all November, December and January proceeds from my sentimental Christmas song White Wine In The Sun will be going to Aspect, a charity that supports Aussie children and adults on the Autism spectrum.
If you already have the song, you might like to gift it via iTunes or donate directly here.
Here’s my performance of the song last year, on The Late Late Show with James Corden, with Iain Grandage’s beautiful strings arrangement and a LOT of candles.
