Festival of Voices presents:
AN INTIMATE PERFORMANCE CELEBRATING CULTURE THROUGH MUSIC
Radical Son is a highly skilled artist, renowned for his magnetic performances, spell-binding vocals and a style that fuses hip hop, soul and a powerful connection to Country and his cultural roots, Radical Son is from the Kamilaroi nation of Australia and the South Pacific nation of Tonga. Radical Son’s new album, Bilambiyal, was crafted alongside a powerhouse team, including Marcus Longfoot, Andy Robinson, David Bridie, Frank Yamma, Emma Donovan, Benny Walker and many more.
It showcases Radical Son’s cultural connection, innate integrity and powerful perception across its 13 tracks, with Radical Son exclusively sharing an insightful album track by track with Rolling Stone AU upon release.
"Even though I wish I’d had a stronger connection to Culture and Country. Even though there was a real disconnect and Culture and Country was not something I had a deep understanding of, still so much of my music is about my mob, my culture, my heritage. With almost 20 years now as an artist, I’ve stayed true to the game. I’ve stayed true to my mob. I’ve stayed true to myself. I really hope that message comes through in my songs." – Radical Son
"Radical Son has one of those voices that stays with you. It stops you in your tracks, forcing you to listen and pay attention. Radical Son is such a compelling artist, and in this album, he shares wisdom and talent so freely." – Sounds of Oz
