‘LET ME GROW MY WINGS'
Don’t miss Ajak Kwai with her stunning, distinctive vocals fronting a four- piece rock band consisting of lead guitarist Kumar Shome, Matt Erickson on bass and Kofi Kunkpe on drums/percussion.
In this invigorating opening night world premiere, award-winning singer-songwriter and activist Ajak Kwai will bid you dance the Festival into life with her funky afro-beats and extraordinary voice. Flitting between Arabic, Sudanese and English, Kwai sings of her exile from South Sudan as a refugee. After a Dja Dja Wurrung Welcome to Country, this concert will draw you into a full 17 days of myriad creative experiences.
