The Middar beat has become a benchmark for many young didge players worldwide. On “Two Roads” Richard presents the didge and tribal chant with modern dance sounds and beats of today for with a dance chill down groove. Richard’s personal history is unique. He is a recognized indigenous leader of the Arts in Australia having been awarded an OBE and an Honorary Doctorate from Murdoch University for his services to the promotion of Nyoongar culture. As a past Chair of the Australia Councils Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Board for nine years, Richard has played an integral role in focusing the direction of indigenous arts in Australia.
