'Our struggle to reconcile with (people of Australian Indigenous descent) is our struggle to reconcile within ourselves, to recover what we are inexorably losing -

a mystical stance before an environing world. It is the struggle for the human soul, not just in Australia, but also throughout the world in the twenty-first century.

 

We refuse to engage them, and to learn from them, at our own peril.'

​

                            James Cornell, 2004:140

Warning to Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders: This site contains images of and reference to people who have died and the voice of two of them.

All albums (except Red Land Songs) able to be downloaded from this site have been co-produced with, mixed and mastered by Brent Hodgkins at

Warrior Records, Bruthen Music Studio, Victoria, Australia.

Red Land Songs was recorded with the valuable assistance of Allan Black formerly of Black Inc, St Leonards, New South Wales.

 

Please note: Neither Rod Cameron OSA/Keis/James Cornell nor Maria Rosa are persons of Australian First Nations descent.  This site therefore does not speak for any one with Australian Indigenous lineage. Rather, as fellow Australians, we instead have worked with them to broaden understanding of their realities while living within the liminal space created when their cultures and the mainstream culture of our country meet. These songs have grown from our encounters and experience of learning from the First Australians. English is not the first language of many First Nations peoples in Australia and around the world.
