MIDNIGHT OIL LAUNCH AUSTRALIAN LEG OF THE GREAT CIRCLE 2017

Midnight Oil launched the Australian leg of The Great Circle Tour last night in Alice Springs with a special Welcome to Country by Senior Arrente men.

Traditional Owner Benedict Stevens told the crowd of nearly 5000 people, “See these two young men here, just like you to know that Arrente Culture is still really strong.”
