| Description |
Big Name, No Blankets celebrates the phenomenal journey and impact of Warumpi Band, inspired by stories from one of the founding members, Sammy Tjapanangka Butcher. From their humble beginnings in Papunya to taking on main stages around the world, these Australian music icons made history as the first rock ‘n’ roll band to sing in Aboriginal language. Feel the thrill of a live concert as you rock out to blak anthems like ‘Jailanguru Pakarnu’, ’My Island Home’ and the legendary Blackfella/Whitefella’. |
