Andrew Gurruwiwi Band – Sing Your Own Song

Andrew Gurruwiwi Band is a high-energy, 8-piece funk band who have honed their chops on the beach at Birrtjimi and in the dirt of Yirrkala, a remote NT community in N.E. Arnhem Land. Led by Andrew Gurruwiwi a shy-but-extravagant, blind, keytar-wielding Yolngu elder with a passion to make people dance while sharing his culture they write real funk jams in their native tongue, Yolngu Matha.

Their sound is truly fresh – Yolngu Funk – a style only hinted at previously on the impossible-to-find pair of 7-inches cut by George Rrurrambu and Birdwave.
