Baker Boy headlines a BLAKTIVISM line-up of living legends and rising voices of First Nations musical activism.
For the fourth year in a row, BLAKTIVISM brings together an incredible line-up of First Nations artists, celebrating Blak Cultures and activism on the Hamer Hall stage. Headlined by hip-hop artist Baker Boy, the lineup features a diverse, multi-generational collection of pioneers and emerging voices of First Nations music and art.
Baker Boy will be joined by rapper Tasman Keith, co-founder of legendary rock band band, No Fixed Address, Bart Willoughby, jazz singer Deline Briscoe, vocal trio Suga Cane Mamas, and more. There will also be a very special performance by the Kulin Nation Songwomen, whose voices will call out in tribute to their matriarchal ancestors.
This year’s theme, Holding Koorie Space, will pay tribute to Koorie families who have fought to retain their land and voice over the years. BLAKTIVISM will pay homage to the bravery of these pioneers, keeping their stories alive through song, ceremony, visual art, dance and creative collaboration.
