Yirinda Album Launch - Good Friday at Four Winds Bermagui

Join Four Winds for the Album Launch of this stunningly beautiful record that combines ancient Aboriginal language with sublime modern production. Leone and Pankhurst will be joined by a full band of exceptional artists including percussion, synth and strings.

Fred is one of three Butchulla Songmen – a song and language custodian for the Butchulla people from the Fraser Coast region of Queensland, including K’gari (formerly known as Fraser Island). He sings the songs on this album in the endangered Butchulla language, now spoken by only a handful of people. Samuel is an internationally acclaimed contrabassist/producer known for his kaleidoscopic harmonies and polyrhythmic mastery.

Often described as ‘holographic’ and ‘visceral’, Yirinda’s sound is a result of the project's willingness to be guided by the ancient stories of Fred’s people.
