Featuring Andrew Gurruwiwi Band, J-MILLA, Jungaji and Radical Son
Get ready for a night of soul-stirring music and moving storytelling with Warriors, a concert raising awareness of First Nations men’s mental health.
Featuring Andrew Gurruwiwi Band, J-MILLA, Jungaji and Radical Son, these world-class artists will perform their music live, sharing their incredible mental health journeys woven together with visual recordings.
“There's something special about music, how it can make Yolŋu (people) feel happy. It has the power to connect and to fill people's hearts with the stories the music carries.” Andrew Gurruwiwi Band
In 2024 men’s mental health continues to be a growing concern, particularly within First Nations communities. First Nations people experience a higher rate of suicide than their non-Indigenous counterparts, with First Nations males accounting for 75% of this*. Data shows this number is on the rise.
“It’s a blessing to talk about mental health, the black dog. You know its impacts and how it affects our community, and it doesn’t discriminate. To sing about that on stage, to have the illuminating conversations and putting in place measures to ensure that the losses within our community are minimised - it’s a place of responsibility.” Jungaji
So join us for a timely concert combining the power of music and stories, where Warriors will have you dancing in your seat for a good cause.
