BROLGA WITH CANISHA & ROBERT CHAMPION
DOORS 7PM // $20 (+BF) TICKETS
Pitjantjatjara/ Kokatha man Russell Smith’s music career has taken him around Australia and to all parts of the globe, working with some of the world’s most recognised musicians. Russell has played Didgeridoo/Yidaki with everyone from the late Uncle Archie Roach AC, Paul Kelly, Rodriguez, Tommy Emmanuel, The Dandy Warhols and Jane’s Addiction.
As the charismatic frontman of Brolga, Russell aims to connect people with his music, and as the late Uncle Archie Roach stated, “As a Pitjantjatjara singer/ songwriter Russell Smith has important stories to tell for all Australians to hear.”
Russell founded Brolga Boys in 1996 and continues to lead the Indie First Nations Rock Band under the name Brolga. He has brought together a significant band of skilled musicians to write and record his first album.
Brolga members include Russell Smith, Dave Mudie, Lee ‘Sonnyboy’ Morgan, Matty Vehl, Phil Ceberano, Bones Sloane and Georgia Anger.
A debut album, a lifetime in the making and a chance to share his talents as a multi-instrumentalist and vocalist a traditional song man. Brolga is an Indie First Nations Rock Band with an important voice.
Russell says, Brolga is “The New Ancient Sound of Australia”.
