The idea for this project started in late 2006 when I heard a tape of these ladies singing and thought it might be fun to put my music together with theirs… just to see what would happen. The journey since then has been one of song, laughter, friendship and sandfly bites. On the face of it there's perhaps not much in common between the main street of Nguiu and the inner city of Sydney, but we've found, having talked and played and sung and danced together that in many ways we are coming from the same place.
