Curated and played by the PAW house band: A compilation of desert anthems from Warlpiri country deep in the Tanami Desert, in Australia’s red heart. Yurumpi is the Warlpiri word for honey ant, an important part of the Jukurrpa (dreaming) around Yuendumu. These songs are hugely important to the musical landscape of the Tanami, blending rock, country, reggae and gospel in a celebration of home, life and love.

The PAW house band consists of: Clifford ‘Scotty’ Japananka Brown, Donovan Jampijimpa Rice and Kenneth ‘KM’ Jungarayi Martin, with musical support from Julien Poulson. The record has been made possible thanks to the support of GMAAC.
