The Gurrumul Story is the first compilation album by Australian indigenous singer songwriter Dr. G. Yunupingu, released in September 2021 via Skinnyfish and Decca Records.
“The Gurrumul Story” is the first ever anthology of the nine-time ARIA award- winner’s most enduring and popular songs.
This album includes a new orchestral version of his much loved ‘Wiyathul (Longing For Place)’ and ‘Bayini’ featuring a contribution from Sarah Blasko.
He was born blind in 1971 as a member of the Gumatj clan and a speaker of the indigenous Yolŋu languages, on Elcho Island, off the coast of North East Arnhem land in Australia's Northern Territory. He incorporated much of his heritage into his music, singing in multiple Yolŋu languages as well as English. He has released four studio albums via Skinnyfish Music, all of which have won ARIA Music Awards.
This album is on black vinyl with a printed inner sleeve, pressed in Australia via Skinnyfish and Decca.
