Black Arm Band is an Aboriginal Australian and Torres Strait Islander( ATSI) music theatre organisation.
The organisation was founded in late 2005 by Steven Richardson and has produced seven large- scale productions since its debut performance at the Melbourne Festival of the Arts in 2006 in addition to ongoing educational and development work in remote Aboriginal communities.
Members are drawn from around Australia and include both blackfulla and whitefulla musicians with diverse musical backgrounds.
The organisation's name comes from a speech by former Australian Prime Minister John Howard who referred to a" black armband view of history".
Their first show," murundak"( meaning" alive" in Woiwurrung), debuted at the 2006 Melbourne International Arts Festival and has since played around Australia and internationally in London, and their second show," Hidden Republic", debuted at the 2008 Melbourne International Arts Festival, both festivals being under the artistic direction of Kristy Edmunds.
In 2009 the new artistic director of the renamed Melbourne Festival, Brett Sheehy, continued the relationship with Black Arm Band, which saw the commissioning and presentation of the premiere productions of" Dirtsong" conceived and directed by Steven Richardson( 2009)," Seven Songs to Leave Behind"( 2010) and" Notes From the Hard Road And Beyond"( 2011)- also both conceived and directed by Steven Richardson.
The first was a celebration of preservation of Indigenous languages with Miles Franklin Award- winner Alexis Wright; the second an international collaboration by contemporary Indigenous singers and musicians including the legendary Gurrumul Yunupingu joined by Sinéad O'Connor, John Cale, Rickie Lee Jones and Meshell Ndegeocello; and the third saw Mavis Staples, Joss Stone, Emmanuel Jal and Paul Dempsey join Black Arm Band to celebrate protest music from the 1960s through to contemporary Indigenous songs of activism.
Djaambi
Djaambi were an urban rock band formed in 1989 by Richard Frankland( ex-Interaction) on lead vocals and saxophone, with both Aboriginal and white members.
Initially a ten- piece, they had a variable line- up and sometimes had 15 performers.
The word," djaambi", is" brother" in an Aboriginal language.
The group released a self- titled album in 1990 and supported Prince on his Australian Tour in 1992.
Djaambi were the subject of a documentary," Beating About the Bush"( Titus Films, 1993), which followed their travels from Alice Springs, through Aboriginal communities, to Darwin.
It was co-produced and co-directed by Nicholas Adler and Caroline Sherwood.
According to" The Canberra Times" staff reporters," It was obvious that most of the band members, particularly the more vocal Aboriginal ones, did not want the film crew there.
It was a wonder they allowed the crew in the first place, considering the distrust of them ...
Franklin was virtually the only person who was happy with the filming."
Frankland, who was also a film maker, had the group provide music for three of his films.
Former members of Djaambi include Peter Rotumah on bass guitar( ex- Hard Times), who was later in the Black Arm Band.
Three female vocalists, Amy Saunders( Frankland's sister), Sally Dastey and Lou Bennett, left in 1991 to form a folk band, Tiddas.
Other band members included Peter Pascotto( drums), Peter Camm( guitar), Dean Hilson( sax), Eugene Ball( trumpet), Alison Walker( vocals), Julia Messenger( vocals), Sonny Cooper( didge, dancer) and Paul Wright( didge, dancer).
Bennett later recalled her time with Djaambi," the band could range from 10 to 15, depending on who was in the audience with a didgeridoo, or who could dance."
Bennett, Dastey and Saunders were also members of the Black Arm Band.
During 1995 to 1996 Frankland recorded his debut solo album," Down Three Waterholes Road"( September 1997).
