Blind from birth, Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu makes a stunning debut onto the scene without any hype whatsoever. This powerhouse of musical creativity hails from the Gumatj nation, indigenous to the Northern Territory of Australia. In my opinion indigenous music, in general, is often widely disregarded replaced instead with some dire manufactured nonsense who don't have a musical bone in their body. This guy is what music is all about. A solid musician and songwriter with a voice that positively soars over the tracks. His music is soothing and spiritual, it clears the mind and takes you far away from the daily grind that life usually offers. Amazing in every way. Certainly worth a listen!
