Wildflower, the young band fronted by five young women from the remote Arnhem Land Outstation of Mamadawerre, made a huge impact at their many performances for the Darwin Festival in 2009. Their debut DVD single “Galiwin’ku” has been broadcast on Rage & on Austar through Aurora Community TV.
Wildflower have been chosen by ABC’s triple j for their list of “Next Crop” acts this year. They will be featured on Sunday November 12th as part of triple j’s Australian Music Month – with airplay throughout the day of “Galiwin’ku” along with a short recorded introduction from the band.
An extended interview with the band will be available on podcast and Wildflower’s profile will be up on the ABC’s Aus Music Month website. This year Wildflower will feature in a TV and multimedia documentary in conjunction with AFC and ABC TV called “Fangin’ The Combi”.
