Huge congratulations to Paula Barrington on her entry “Eastbourne! My, My!”
Paula has captured the heart, humour, and rhythm of our seaside town in a song that’s as catchy as it is clever. Her lyrics shine with energy and wit — a playful anthem that celebrates Eastbourne’s quirks while getting stuck in your head from the very first line. “Eastbourne! My, My!” isn’t just a song, it’s a love letter to the bays, delivered with style and sparkle.
This stand-out track is now part of Eastbourne Unplugged 2025 — and it sets the bar high.

Where the Lights Went Get Out

A cry for help for Wellington — once the cultural capital, now a city where stages sit empty and the spotlight is fading. This song captures the heartbreak of a place losing its spark in the world of entertainment.

We hope this news brings a smile!
