For Part 2 of Episode 6, we hand over to musician and broadcaster, Preston Peachey. Preston is a Wiradjuri and Malyangapa man who grew up in Sydney. Having played drums in local bands since the age of 14, he went on to study community development while looking at Aboriginal music through that lens. He now works in community engagement on Gadigal Country.
His approach for this segment was to show the diversity of style and culture that is paired with everything from songs of political action, to ceremony, to personal reflections and healing.
We loved having Preston on the show.
