Tjimba & the Yung Warriors

Fri 20th February 09 | 1:00pm - 1:45pm
River Stage



The Yung Warriors have a plan! Their aims since last year were to start earning income, polish their stage show, record a brilliantly produced album, do live shows for their communities and in the mainstream and to tour regionally.

They achieved all they set for and more. As well as shows and workshops for their community they performed their original style of Hip Hop in mainstream clubs and festivals and even supported international act and hero 50 Cent. To cap it off they played an intro at the Anthony Mundine world title fight.

They played out live for their community right across Regional Victoria at Lake Tyers Community, Tarerer Festival in Warnambool, Yorta Yorta communities along the Murray, Wathaurong Community in Geelong and even Brambuk Forrest in remote Victoria. 

The guys are inspired to show indigenous youth everywhere that ‘there’s always something good out there’ and to ‘hold your head up’. They reach out with ‘Aussie Hip Hop’ for everyone out too saying ‘our music is for everyone’.
