January 26 is Invasion Day; a day that has been recognised as a Day of Mourning for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people since 1938.

Given that neither of us are First Nations, we figured the best move was to shut up and get out of the way.

Instead of our regular show, tonight we’re playing wall-to-wall First Nations artists, with no talk.

Search these artists out. Add them to your playlists. Amplify their music. See their live shows. Show up.

Justice and self-determination for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, now and forever.


Backstreets – Miss Kaninna

Dirrpi Yuin Patjulinya – DOBBY

THICK SKIN – Baker Boy, Thelma Plum, Emma Donovan, Kee’ahn, Jada Weazel

Therapy (Live) – Budjerah

(The version we play on air is the live version from when Budjerah supported Ed Sheeran at the MCG. This version is also excellent.)

Better in Blak – Thelma Plum

Through The Trees – King Stingray

Our Greats – 3%

My Island Home – Jimblah

Change Has To Come – Mo’Ju

Twisting Words – Miiesha

Our People – 3% feat. The Presets

SHE DON’T NEED TO KNOW – The Kid LAROI

Move Your Feet – Mitch Tambo

Kalkur – Jungaji and Dean Brady
