Casey Pike, of Alex and the Lads, performs during Ampathon 2015 at Re:Fuel in Dunedin on Saturday. Amped Music project co ordinator Dallas Synnott said 10 bands and performers were part of the Ampathon gig this year.

''We have got a couple of kids who have never performed in front of people before and a few that are more seasoned, so it's a really cool mixture.''

The gig gave performers a chance to hone their skills and nurtured their talent, she said.

The performers, who were aged between 14 and 18, took part in eight workshops and three practice gigs in the build up to the event. Those involved were recording songs for a CD which would also be released on iTunes and Spotify.
