River Song in Yackandandah
About
River Song is an urgent, emotive celebration of the mighty River Murray, revealing the role rivers play in our lives – past, present and future.Conversations from across kitchen tables inspire real characters and stories in an unfolding narrative.
Stories of historic pioneering adversity, drawn from first-hand reportage, reveal the spirit of rural Australia in a historical and contemporary lense.
The original songs and folk-inspired score, supported by local artists' immersive imagery, flow with the energy of the River itself.
The spirit of country Australia, with River Song touring traditional Halls and Venues, is a journey of humour, heartbreak, and courage.
The story is deeply engaging and serves as a nod to the illustrious days of river trade, while acknowledging the challenges of today's changing landscape.
River Song, a love letter to the Murray-Darling River.
A warm and heartfelt journey… the interdependence of nature and man.
