Their first gig kicked off at noon on Friday, and for the next couple of weeks they will be performing every Thursday and Friday from noon until 2pm.

The event was organised by teen musician Sam Campbell-McCrea, who rounded up several locals musicians.

"We got some gear together, contacted some musicians, and I think it's turned out really well. It's nice in the sun, it's good music, and a good atmosphere," Mr Campbell-McCrea said.

"It's good to get some culture in the main street again."

Guitarist Jez Swan normally performs at clubs, pubs, and venues around Wagga but said he had no gigs to keep him busy due to the coronavirus-related restrictions.

Mr Swan said he was beyond relieved to see restrictions easing and live music coming back to Wagga.

"It got really lonely, not having that creative space to express yourself," he said.

"I've been doing this my whole life and it felt weird for not doing it for that length of time.

"I've tried to stay creative, write music, record music.

"It's the only thing you can do to stay sane, get that creative energy out, to write music and record it."

Mr Swan is looking forward to returning to Baylis Street for his busking sessions, saying he wanted to resurrect those positive vibes.

"It's been a little dull since COVID so council's put an initiative together to bring the arts back, which is cool," he said.

"It's all about making a few more happier moments."
