Nardi Simpson is a Yuwaalaraay storyteller from NSW’s North West freshwater plains. Her work has long been dedicated to breathing life into objects and story of the past through song, language revival and she continues to be heavily involved in the teaching and sharing of culture in both her Sydney and Yuwaalaraay communities. Her work spans music, composing, music direction and her debut novel titled Song of the Crocodile was winner of the 2017 Black&Write! Fellowship. She joined us to chat through the expansiveness of her practice and what it is to form connections that collapse the boundaries of colonial time through song, memory and listenting. 

Nardi Simpson will appear at two events at the Sydney Writers Festival including Storytelling Gala: Letters to the Future on May 25 and Women of Another Australia on May 26. More details here.
