Riley P and Friends

Palmerston rapper Riley P works tirelessly in the community with young people – teaching them skills, confidence and strength in themselves. And he’s a great rapper too! For Kids Club Spectacular Riley P takes to the stage with three young Territory rappers – siblings Faith, Jana and Levon, performing their favourite songs. Both children and adults really love this performance.

 

Prawn Cracker Spice

The animated, energetic and super sweet Prawn Cracker Spice is a favourite with young people. She performs choreographed dance routines both solo or with backup dancers to songs that kids love. For Freds Pass Rural Show, Prawn Cracker Spice will be finishing the set with a mashup of songs ending with Katy Perry’s ‘Firework’ – timing it perfectly to introduce our spectacular fireworks display at 8pm.
