Nahko & Medicine For The People (USA)

Tue 25 November

The Hi-Fi SYDNEY

Nahko and Medicine for the People are returning to Australia after their enormously successful national tour earlier this year, which included two main stage performances at the Byron Bay Blues Festival. Starting in Melbourne on 14 November, the band will play 14 shows throughout the country, ending on 6 December in Fremantle (Perth.)

Oregon-native Nahko, born a mix of Apache, Puerto Rican, and Filipino cultures and adopted into an American family, suffered an identity crisis from an early age. But the unifying power of music entered his life as a healing remedy when he started playing piano at age six. Armed with his newfound talent, Nahko set to unify people and bridge cultural gaps, allowing listeners to follow him on his journey towards personal and spiritual realisation. Thus, Medicine for the People was born. His lyrical story-telling ability opens listeners to “real talk music”, which reveals honesty and purity. The music acts as a connecter, drawing people and ideas and cultures together in surprising new ways.

Nahko’s second album, “Dark As Night” (Ten to Two Records) explores themes of self-discovery, forgiveness, and the embracement of all of life’s moments. There is an underlying theme of social and political change woven throughout the songs. Bridging the music and activism worlds, Nahko has promoted and raised awareness with organisations that range from climate change awareness to a myriad of projects surrounding first nation rights, energy policies, environmental and social justice issues.
