Barunga Festival 95 - Aboriginal dance introducing Blekbala Mujik, Australia

Added by Oz Outback

Blekbala Mujik (Kriol for "Blackfellow Music") was a very successful band of Aboriginal musicians, with founding member and leader Peter Miller. Hailing from Barunga, an Aboriginal community just south of Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory of Australia, they combined pop, rock and reggae with traditional Aboriginal chant and dance, using clapsticks and didjeridu together with western instruments. This is an Aboriginal dance introducing leader Peter Miller at the start of the concert at the Barunga Festival, 11 June 1995.
