Samuel Gaskin is the very definition of a cultural and creative renaissance man, with his myriad focuses spent furthering the advancement of music, theatre, advocacy, and his Beat Entertainment company. But that barely scratches the surface of what one of this country’s most acclaimed creators is capable of. Channelling his Māori and Nigerian roots, the Melbourne-based multi-hyphenate has been dubbed a “creative tour de force” by Rolling Stone Australia, while garnering critical acclaim for his efforts in music and theatre. Beginning a musical career in 2010, recent years have included writing and performing with local Indigenous artists, including Yothu Yindi & The Treaty Project, The Merindas & Kee’ahn.
