Australian rock band Midnight Oil are returning with new music for the first time in 18 years. Gadigal Land is named after the traditional inhabitants of what is now Sydney and will be released on Friday, while a video will premiere a day later during the National Indigenous Music Awards.
The song is the first single from Midnight Oil’s upcoming mini-album The Makarrata Project, which is set for release in October.
Gadigal Land features vocalists Kaleena Briggs, Bunna Lawrie and Dan Sultan as well as a lyrical section written and delivered by Gadigal poet Joel Davison.
Midnight Oil said the band’s share of proceeds from the song will be donated to organisations backing The Uluru Statement From The Heart.
