Blaktivism

Stand up and join Tasman Keith, Bart Willoughby, Emma Donovan, Deline Briscoe and more, for a collaborative set, performing together as the galvanised chorus of an unstoppable movement.

Blaktivism will explore Skylore, the Lore that connects all First Nations cultures across the country through stories in the sky, following the journey from the rise of the Evening star in the Kulin Nations to the rise of the Morning star in West Papua.

The fresh sounds of Yolŋu rock band King Stingray follows the explosive Blaktivism set. The five-piece outfit have cemented themselves as one of Australia’s eminent home-grown acts in a meteoric rise. Listen as they weave an ancient tradition of songlines dating back tens of thousands of years with modern surf-rock, connecting to home and family through every song.

Blaktivism celebrates Blak Cultures and Blak Artivism in this country, reconnecting ancient songs across the region in a powerful one-night only special event.

Part of ALWAYS LIVE.
