Breeze has never drummed, Jam and Vivi won't stop arguing and Ginger hides in her music, too nervous to engage until her headphones go missing. In crisis mode, they band together in a rocky start for these rock stars in the making.
Vivi is shaken when she becomes the target of an online bullying page. Meanwhile, the band just aren't listening to each other, Enter Hex, whose discerning ear may be the key...oh and band names are hard.
The Volume need to write a song but aren't gelling so Hex poposes that they all write separately. Breeze blamed lack of life-experience for her writing woes so she breaks free in search of inspiration.
Vivi campaigns to get the band their first gig, insisting they increase the practices if they're serious about Footsgroovia. Tough for Hex though, travelling from Ballarat each day, who hasn't told Nan and Pop anything yet.
The pressure is on for the band's debut gig at Leo's party. Vivi's in turbo mode, Breeze is amped for her first party and Jam is all clammed up at the thought of singing in front of a crowd. Will they rock or flop?
With the band dynamic in a shambles, it's bad timing to be performing for the Footsgroovia selection panel. Meanwhile, Ginger reluctantly leans on her band mates for support at a memorial gig for her dad.
The Volume are devastated when they miss out on a slot to perform at the Footsgroovia Festival. Meanwhile Vivi tries to figure who she really is by leaning into her Asian identity. If only she wasn't so bad at playing the erhu.
In a final attempt to land a slot at Footsgroovia, The Volume devise a plan to boost their profile by busking in Footscray. But when things keep going wrong, it seems someone is sabotaging them. Is it one of the band?
In the lead up to their first gig, things are super awkward between Jam and Vivi, Breeze is resentful about always being overlooked, while Ginger and Hex's friendship is splintering. All made worse when Jack the dog goes missing.
Festival day finally arrives but everything that can go wrong, does go wrong. Will thry make it in time to Footsgroovia to play? With the last day of band camp looming, could this be the end of The Volume?
