“The show is a bone-rattling, reality-shifting crack to the head. Ngulmiya's voice must stand as one of Australia's best ever.” Grace Stokes, Scenestr "...owner of a voice capable of making you leave your body, no exaggeration.” Mundo Sonoro “For almost an hour it seems as if the hall of Teatro Tivoli has been teleported to another universe, one of terrifying beauty." Ton Maas, MixedWorldMusic.com “…this astonishing album confirms Ngulmiya as the purest, strongest and most impressive Australian Indigenous voice that we’ve heard since Gurrumul. Thoroughly gorgeous.” Seth Jordan, Songlines Magazine. "The sound image is dominated by two voices that can compete with those of a classic hero tenor in terms of breath support, intensity and vibrato." Ton Maas, MixedWorldMusic.com An iconic and highly respected Songman and Ceremony leader from the remote traditional homelands of Arnhem Land. His traditional style developed over thousands of years in isolation, with later influence from the Makassan traders from SE Asia.
