About the Author
Multi-award-winning Electric Fields create a striking and haunting merging of living traditional culture with electronic music, bringing moments of breathtaking beauty and power to the stage. Featuring the rare and beautiful voice of Zaachariaha Fielding - who often sings in his traditional languages of the Anangu people - and the brilliance of producer Michael Ross, Electric Fields' music ranges from soulful pop to epic-scale electronic works, from intensely intimate story-songs through to contemporised versions of traditional music from the APY Lands. Named as 'Movers for the Next Gen' by Vogue magazine, and finalists for the ARIA Award for Best Live Act, their awards include the three top spots for the National Live Music Awards in 2019: Best Live Act, Best Live Voice and Electronic Act of the Year. 2022 has seen them playing the G'Day USA AAA Gala in Los Angeles; at the SummerStage festival in Central Park, NYC; composing the music for the VIVID Lighting of the Sails, and live performance for the AFL Dreamtime Round.
