Biography:

Hailing from Australia, Ganga Giri personifies the sound of Traditional Australian Didjeridu, creating a powerful rhythmic style. The ensemble mixes pumping, percussive Didjeridu with fat tribal beats, funky dub bass lines with world percussion sounds to create a unique tribal-technological deep earth dance experience.

Press:

“The Australian quartet stormed the fields of Wakarusa with their interpretation of ancient cultures. The sound‚ the presence‚ the energy was overwhelming - hands down‚ the highlight of the entire festival.”
Garret K. Woodward - State of Mind

“Ganga Giri is a wonderful musician. I first heard him at a Womad festival, and loved the mix of his ancient and primitive instrument with a wide range of great dance grooves. Ganga is really taking the didjeridu to places it has never been before and developing a unique style of music.”
Peter Gabriel - Real World Records

“The music took my muddy boots and threw them about for a bit, next thing I knew the dub from the decks had infected my spine and my whole buddy was bouncing, this carried on throughout their set, until its climax. At which point the sun and blue skies appeared. ”
Scott Williams - Glastonbury Festival review
