Not-for-profit organisation and record label, Wantok Musik, celebrates their 21st anniversary with Wantok Musik Vol. 3, the third compilation released by the label which represents a diverse range of First Nations artists from the Oceania region.
Wantok Musik exists to help Pacific First Nations musicians share their unique music and
cultural perspectives and, in doing so, transform lives and communities. In a world full of change
and challenge, Wantok supports and showcases an Oceania that is ancient, diverse, creative,
culturally rich and resilient.
Founded by current artistic director David Bridie and former co-artistic director Airileke Ingram,
Wantok has developed into one of the leading music labels in the region, nurturing artists from
the beginning of their careers and releasing groundbreaking debut records from artists like
Emily Wurramara and Ngaiire. Wantok Musik Vol. 3 features tracks from Black Rock Band, Radical Son, Frank Yamma, George Telek, Kutcha Edwards and many more.
Wantok Musik Vol. 3 is out now - tune in to PBS all this week to hear tracks from the compilation. PBS Members have the chance to win a copy of the album on CD via this Tuesday's e-newsletter so make sure you check your inbox!
