About

Join them on-stage, cabaret style for a night of storytelling through songs. Blak Country is a celebration of the resonance First Nations people have found in country music, nurturing generations to tell strong stories about life, land and love. Curated by Barkindji songwoman Nancy Bates, Blak Country gathers powerful First Nations voices from across generations, backed by a full band and imagery of the land which breathes life into the songs. "When we take time—when we make time—to listen to the songs and stories that come from our First Nations songwriters, we are listening to and learning from Country, as our ancestors did and as our grandchildren will do." – Nancy Bates Central to this marriage of story and song, is the guitar, instrumental in the pursuit of justice on unceded land, and the continuance of Songlines.
