Ganga Giri

 

Ganga Giri is an Australian world-renowned didgeridoo player whose energetic live shows are a multi-cultural dance floor celebration reflecting a vision of Australia now.  Ganga Giri mixes natural elements with fat tribal beats and dirty funky bass lines to create a unique tribal-technological deep-earth dance experience. Explosive and pulsating, at times ambient and flowing, the music is a pumping percussive multi-layered experience of complex grooves and raw, deep natural sound. A popular performer in other parts of Canada, USA and Europe on the festival circuit, this is the first time Ganga Giri has appeared in Ottawa.  

"Ganga Giri is a wonderful musician. I first heard him at a Womad festival, and loved the mix of his ancient and primitive instrument with a wide range of great dance grooves. Ganga is really taking the didjeridu to places it has never been before and developing a unique style of music." ~ Peter Gabriel
