Still Taking ‘Bout a Revolution: Nancy Bates Sings Tracy Chapman

Barkindji woman, and esteemed singer-songwriter Nancy Bates reflects on the songs of Tracy Chapman, and relevance to race relations, society, and politics in Australia today. Four years on the road with Archie Roach have spurred Bates on to become a powerful presence on stage, an advocate for Mental Health, and Ambassador to the Australian Performing Rights Association. In recent years she has collaborated with many women in prison, turning their experiences of pain and loss into beautiful music.

Mahalia Barnes

Mahalia Barnes has been in and around music her entire life. Throughout her childhood years she was exposed to everything from Ray Charles, Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett to Ike + Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin, Donny Hathaway and Stevie Wonder, all of which helped shape her into the powerhouse soul and blues vocalist that has jaws dropping every time she picks up a mic. Mahalia and her band, The Soul Mates, have released three albums and consistently play to capacity crowds around the country.
