Theirs is the oldest continuously practised music tradition in the world. They'll be joined by collaborator, renowned musician and composer Peter Knight.Composer/trumpeter, Peter Knight, formed "Hand to Earth" with the Wilfred brother during an Australian Art Orchestra residency in 2019. Since then they have presented their distinctive synthesis of the ancient and the contemporary at major festivals and venues all over the world. They have also released two albums earning plaudits and nominations including an ARIA in 2022. David and Daniel will talk about culture, country, and songlines, and will perform traditional manikay for what is almost certainly the first time in the Kelvin Club.
