MEET - MISTER MEM
INSPIRATIONAL SOUNDS OF THE DIDGERIDOO



As a performer with the Didgeridoo I have always known that the instrument has its own unique spiritual sound and the way people have reacted around the world confirmed its overwhelming powers.Mister Mem is an acclaimed Didgeridoo player and has also performed with percussion. He is also a composer, songwriter, stage presenter, fine Aboriginal art curator, painter, public speaker and cultural ambassador for a nation.

He has personally appeared on numerous radio and television productions and has toured the world with the renowned Australian bush band THE SUNDOWERS, also mounting art exhibitions, educating people about Aboriginal culture or representing Australia as an Honorary Tourism Ambassador. According to Mem “As well as reaching the audiences with my Didgeridoo performance, I educate people with the history of Australia and the diversity of the Indigenous Culture, which relates to all humans on earth”.

“What I enjoy most of all is The Didgeridoo, as it has become the ancient voice in today’s wave of technological infrastructure. It’s a mythical sound that vibrates through one’s soul. The Didgeridoo has delighted audiences around the world and people are captivated with the unique blend of sounds and how it can be incorporated with today’s contemporary music as I have demonstrated with the many bands that I have performed with”.
