• Indigenous Australian singer / songwriter Gurrumul (1971 – 2017) was born blind and raised on Elcho Island (Galiwin’ku), off the coast of tropical northeast Arnhem Land in Australia’s Northern Territory.

His fragile but uniquely soulful high tenor voice and aura-like appearance evoke feelings of peace and longing in the listener.
