In this Behind the Scenes NAIDOC Week special, Presenter Chris Thompson chats with Allara Briggs Pattison, a Yorta Yorta, musician, composer, storyteller, language learner, soundscape designer, curator and, as of late last year, community farmer. She plays double bass and uses a loop station to create works inspired by ancient oral traditions. Her spoken word stories reflect cultural, spiritual and environmental empowerment. In this conversation she speaks about how her work on the land and her work in music feed each other and talks about her collaborative music making ahead of her upcoming gig at Monash Performing Arts Centres as part of Blakout, the fantastic festival of works and performances by First Nations artists which began in Reconciliation Week and will end during NAIDOC Week.
Allara’s performance in the David Li Sound Gallery is on July 6 which is also the start of NAIDOC WEEK 2025.
