Notes

From back cover:

Over two nights at Sydney's grand State Theatre, before a packed audience, many of Australia's most acclaimed singer/songwriters and musicians came together to perform the songs of Kev Carmody.

Kev Carmody's work draws on a unique life experience combining both Western and Indigenous literary and spiritual traditions, an eye for historical and political narratives and a willingness to explore the deeply personal. His songs cover Christian theology, black deaths in custody and celebrations of all walks of Australian life.

At times intensely intimate, occasionally raucous and loud - this documentary is a joyous celebration of the life and times, the spirit, the songs and story telling of Kev Carmody.

This concert was a landmark moment in Australian music. This is how we saw it.
