Seth Dodd is an Australian Indigenous instrumentalist from the Ngarrindjeri / Narrunga people of South Australia currently living in Adelaide. Seth started playing guitar in the South East after listening to guitar god Joe Satriani’s “Surfing with the Alien” and immediately began learning, mostly by ear. After attending Adelaide University’s Centre for Aboriginal Studies in Music (CASM) from 1996-1999 including numerous uni gigs and performances with the band Freedem Crew he took some time out to work on his guitar and audio engineering skills which culminated in a handful of instrumental recordings in 2009 (this formed the basis of his debut album “Seven”). Partnering with Lemongum Studio audio engineer Mark Bagshaw in ’06, Seth began fine tuning his recording techniques, guitar playing, and song writing till eventually being awarded a grant from Arts SA late in 2010. Seth was soon after invited onto 2 Arts SA grant assessment panels of which he is still attending as well as being
