About the artist

Frank Yamma

FRANK YAMMA: The Outback Crooner Frank Yamma, the Outback Crooner, is a force to be reckoned with in the Australian music scene. With a voice that can rattle the reddest of rocks and lyrics that cut straight to the heart, Yamma's music is a soul-stirring blend of traditional Aboriginal sounds and contemporary blues. Born and raised in Australia's remote central desert, Frank Yamma has a backstory that reads like a dusty old folk tale. The son of a Russian immigrant and an Aboriginal woman, Yamma grew up immersed in both cultures, a duality that shines through in his music. Yamma's latest album, "Songs of Survival," is a testament to his resilience and artistry. From the hauntingly beautiful "Tjukurpa," which tells the stories of his ancestors, to the gritty, guitar-driven "Ngarrka," Yamma's songs are a masterclass in storytelling and emotion. But don't let the serious subject matter fool you - Yamma is also a master of wit and charm. His live performances are legendary for their energy and humour, with Yamma effortlessly winning over audiences with his cheeky smile and quick wit. In a music industry that often favours the flashy and the superficial, Frank Yamma is a breath of fresh air - a true artist with a message worth listening to. So take a journey into the heart of the Outback with the one and only Frank Yamma, and prepare to be moved, inspired, and entertained in equal measure.
