Towards the end of last year I did a story on the Australian Aboriginal Warakurna Community, or the Western Desert Mob as they call themselves.

The story came about after a good friend of mine’s niece, Edwina Circuitt, paid him and his mum a visit. Edwina has lived and works with the Warakurna people for some time. Anyhow, when she visited my friend Ian and his mother, I was lucky enough to be invited to the family do and I got to meet Edwina.

At that family do Edwina and myself chatted a little about the Western Desert Mob and their wonderful Art, and as you have just heard, or will hear, their music is also excellent.., and is available on their CD along with their story. :)

Now if you want to learn a bit more about the Warakurna Artists, their art and exactly where it is that they live; you’ll be stunned, check out the Warakurna Community on our post on GetALookAtThis, and use the great features of Google Maps to check out the surrounding environment and their relative position in Australia.
