Author(s): GEOFFREY GURRUMUL YUNU

General

The April issue of Rolling Stone declared him as “Australia’s Most Important Voice.” Whilst this enormous accolade is accepted with great pride and humilty, it is the release of Gurrumul’s highly anticipated follow up album Rrakala that has media tongue’s wagging. This second solo album retains the quality, purity and sound of his first, but has this elusive artist delving into other genres and instruments within his own cultural context. Showcased for the first time are his exceptional skills on piano, drums, nylon string acoustic guitar, electric and acoustic guitars.
