Blending local artistry with the laid-back rhythm of coffee culture.
Where Community Meets Craft
The magic of Noosa doesn’t just live in the waves or the weather, it lives in the people. It’s found in the quiet rituals of a morning brew, the laughter echoing through laneways, and the stories shared between locals and visitors alike.
For us at First Batch Coffee Roasters, this magic has always been the driving force. As our founder Brent often reflects “If it weren’t for the community, the creativity, and the sunshine, First Batch wouldn’t be where it is today.”
That’s why we created Creative Brews - a celebration of everything that makes Noosa feel like home. It's a living, breathing reflection of the creative pulse that runs through our town, our café, and our community.
Local Sounds, Big Heart
Jaida Champney
Hailing from Gympie, Jaida is a soulful singer-songwriter whose warm, acoustic sounds wrap around a space like sunlight through leaves. Her music, grounded in folk, indie, and coastal influences, invites listeners to pause, connect, and feel. With every performance, she brings an intimacy that feels personal.
Thomas Antcliff
Thomas embodies the grounded charm of coastal living. Raised locally and deeply woven into the community, his performances are raw, honest, and rich with storytelling. Whether he’s playing an afternoon set or sharing songs inspired by the everyday beauty of Noosa life, Thomas brings heart and humility to the stage, reminding us that simplicity often carries the greatest depth.
Together, Jaida and Thomas create a musical rhythm that perfectly mirrors the laid-back heartbeat of First Batch. Their presence in our space transforms coffee time into something more - something meaningful, memorable, and uniquely Noosa.
Painting the Atmosphere: Cass Deller
If music is the rhythm of Creative Brews, art is its visual soul.
We’re honoured to collaborate with Cass Deller, a Noosa-based artist whose signature watercolour style captures the essence of coastal living. Cass has long been inspired by the ocean, natural textures, and the colours of our surroundings and for Creative Brews, she’s infused our café with that very spirit.
Cass’s work invites you to feel the Noosa lifestyle - calm, creative, and quietly beautiful. Her artwork isn’t just decoration; it’s an expression of our identity. It’s the thread that connects your cup of coffee to the bigger story of place, people, and passion.
A Cultural Ritual, Reimagined
Creative Brews is not just a campaign. It’s a movement. A reminder that coffee culture is about more than caffeine. It’s about connection. It’s about showing up for the people who show up for us. And it’s about sharing space with artists and musicians who shape the sound and soul of our region.
Throughout August, we’re turning our café into a creative hub. Expect acoustic sessions that stir emotion, artworks that spark conversation, and of course, expertly roasted coffee that keeps the experience grounded.
Whether you’re a local looking to unwind or a visitor seeking a deeper sense of Noosa, this is your invitation to experience it all, up close and personal.
Come Along for the Magic
We’d love for you to be part of it.
Drop by for a coffee, stay for a song, admire the art, and take a moment to appreciate the beauty of where we live and the people who bring it to life. This is Creative Brews, and it’s everything we love about Noosa - served up fresh, every day.
See you soon at First Batch!
