Elderly Aboriginal woman providing joy to her community through music seeking assistance to purchase bass guitar and amp.
An Aboriginal woman from a remote community in her sixties has formed a musical band with her other sisters, but is in need of a bass guitar and amp. The sisters have been rehearsing together for a long time and one of them is writing the biographical songs for the group. The reaction from other community members to their music is very emotive with people often crying, laughing, smiling and dancing. People often cry when they hear the songs, but it also is a source of great joy to the performers and family and community members. Community life can be difficult, especially this one which was in the recent flood region. music brings joy to everybody and particular this group of woman as they are elderly, and are singing about their lives which everybody else in the community can relate to. The group also write songs for children and in their local language.
