About This Event
Gathering presents Suga Can Mamas.
Suga Cane Mamas are voice, string and stories told by three Blak women. Berniece Peeauake, Eilla Appo and Georgia Corowa, the gentle breeze that brings original soul songs, woven from generation to generation of First Nations and South Sea Islander bloodlines. Each melody is an invitation to pause, rest and reflect over a cuppa and to have a yarn with your fave person.
Join us between 12 noon-1pm to enjoy live music with Suga Cane Mamas.
This Gathering event is produced by Cre8tiveNations.
Gathering showcases Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander performances in the Queen Street Mall. Unique to Brisbane, it is the only Indigenous performance in Australia that is featured weekly in the heart of a major capital city.
