The Jarrett Family - Wire MC, Tasman Keith & Kapital
This event delves into the life stories of these three men from the Bowraville Mission and Sydney. Wire MC, a pioneering force in the evolution of hip hop in Australia, has left an enduring mark on the music industry. He is a trailblazer for First Nations artists with an uncompromising stance on what it means to be an Aboriginal man.
His sons, Tasman Keith and Sammy J (aka Kapital J) are following his footsteps and carving their own path in the music industry. Tasman, a determined and independent artist, is set on preserving his roots while forging a unique musical identity. Sammy J’s versatility as a producer and DJ has seen him create his own music, as well as collaborate with brother Tasman and other artists.
