“I can imagine everyone else is thinking the same. Uncle Archie is a leader that we all look up to and are inspired by and have love for.”
Kee’ahn is excited to join a multi-generational lineup of artists they’ve “admired since I was a kid” for a tribute that holds importance in “building community, strengthening community.”
“We’re [always] loud and proud. Sometimes, it’s the [lack of] accessibility and people in the wider community not listening,” Kee’ahn shares. “This opportunity to connect with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and perform at a huge venue with talented collaborators is just one way of making space, amplifying voices in my community, sharing our messages and values and showing love for one another and our elders.
