Naomi Pigram-Mitchell leads a stellar cast of Broome's finest musicians, vocalists and performers in a concert that pays homage to the legendary artists who came before and amplifies the voices shaping the future.

Naomi was born amongst the artistic giants who created the 'Broome sound' – they were loud, they were proud, and they were masters of their craft. Now, she stands at the crossroads of Broome's vital history, her own music and the next generation of performers.

This joyous event celebrates the enduring spirit of Big Spirit Country through the collective power of Broome's artists – a powerful fusion of culture, connection and song.
