Overview
With 17 successful years under its belt, the annual Share the Spirit, or Balit Narran, Festival is back again. It's run by Songlines Music Aboriginal Corporation and aims to increase the recognition of, and celebrate, contemporary Aboriginal music — so, naturally, the festival showcases a range of Indigenous artists.
Multi-genre singer Mojo Juju, hip hop group Brothers in Arms and folkt female duo Stiff Gins are some of the performers on the 2019 lineup, with genres ranging from folk to country, blues to soul, and funk and hip hop.
As well as music, the free event, which takes place on Saturday, January 26, features a Welcome to Country and smoke ceremony, art stalls, craft and cultural workshops and dance performances, all in Melbourne CBD's Treasury Gardens.
Share the Spirit Festival runs from 1–5pm.
