WAARI



WAARI LIVE AT BULMBA-JA THEATRE (GIMUY)


WAARI LIVE AT HIGHNOTE  (NAARM)













Born in Mount Isa (in so-called Queensland), WAARI is an interdisciplinary musician, writer, and visual artist.

With grace, his work traverses the intricacies of past, present, and future. For WAARI, sharing knowledge
through Blak music and art is a transformative act of healing.

WAARI is a proud descendant of the Waanyi and Kalkadoon people from the Gulf of Carpentaria Country and the
Mount Isa region south of the Gulf, and of the Ngāti Mutunga, Ngāti Manu, Te Ātiawa iwis from regions of Taranaki in Aotearoa.
Bringing two worlds, WAARI offers a deep understanding of being Blak in places wrought by colonial continuance.



‘MUKI’ OUT NOW


MUKI is WAARI’s debut EP, an exploration of Blak life, land, love and futurity. 
Following the cycles of life – birth, coming of age, death and rebirth – as they 
connect to cycles of family across generations and land across seasons.
