Staff members are calling for participation from music lovers, those looking to make new friends, and those looking for new challenges. This first-time event aims to provide a platform for young, talented students to perform. Many staff members at the branch, including Branch Manager Nakado, are music lovers and enjoy playing instruments, and even have a staff band called "Silver Marine." This event was planned to encourage musical activities for junior and senior high school students, who have few opportunities to perform. "We want this to be a place where they can deepen their connections with other band members and pursue their dreams," said Ginoza. All members must be junior and senior high school students living in Yaeyama. Participants must perform two songs. Approximately 10 groups are expected to enter. Sakiho Nanami, Suzuna Nakawaka, and Ayu Ginoza visited the Yaeyama Mainichi Shimbun to promote the event. "The desire to perform, regardless of skill level, is what's important. We look forward to receiving your applications," said Nakawaka. Applications are accepted through the Student Band Festa's LINE account. The deadline is January 30th.
