Artists

Electric Fields 

Multi-award-winning Electric Fields create a striking and haunting merging of living traditional culture with electronic music. Featuring the extraordinary voice of Zaachariaha Fielding – who often sings in his traditional languages of the Anangu people – with the brilliance of producer Michael Ross – Electric Fields music ranges from soulful pop to epic-scale electronic works, through to intensely intimate story-songs.

This ARIA and NIMA award-winning duo has performed all across Australia and the world, including at Eurovision, the Sydney Opera House, and with the Sydney, Melbourne and Queensland Symphony Orchestras.
