“I’m honoured to be invited to speak at such a special milestone event for our music community. Whilst marginalised women and gender non-conforming folk endure constant change, violence and uncertainty, it is vital these communities continue to be supported, protected and celebrated. The One of One team have worked tirelessly over 10 years to ensure this exists. I look forward to sharing my own experience as an Indigenous woman and mother in music and will be drawing from the stories of our Matriarchs; how we can look back in order to move forward”
