Legendary songwriter and ‘voice of the Stolen Generations’ Archie Roach brings his life story to the stage in Tell Me Why, a spectacular live concert celebrating his eponymous memoir and latest album.
Roach is joined onstage by his five-piece band, including award-winning jazz composer and improviser Paul Grabowsky, and special guest vocalists Emma Donovan and Sally Dastey. Hear seminal songs from Roach’s back catalogue alongside influential music from his youth and three new autobiographical songs written since completing his memoir.
Not many have lived as many lives as Archie Roach – from stolen child and teenage alcoholic to seeker, lover (with his life partner, the late Ruby Hunter), father, musical icon, social advocate and First Nations leader. His story is an extraordinary odyssey through love and heartbreak, family and community, survival and renewal – and a testament to the healing power of music.
An intimate, moving and often confronting musical journey through the iconic songwriter and activist’s life, Tell Me Why is a compelling account of resilience, strength of spirit, and great love.
