Adrian Burragubba (aka ''Burragubba McAvoy''〔Heywood L (2004) "Busker, council reach accord on music" Courier-Mail 2 March p 9〕) is an Aboriginal Australian musician skilled in didgeridoo particularly known from his many years busking in Brisbane's Queens Street Mall〔 and for having stood for Queensland parliament in 2004 seeking full reimbursement of past Aboriginal wages 'stolen' by the Queensland Government.〔 He most recently made the news when he was the victim of an apparently racially motivated attack while performing. ==Musical career== His musical performances combine traditional Aboriginal dress and body painting with instruments including an unkeyed didgeridoo and clapsticks. Renowned for his busking, Adrian has been a notable figure in Brisbane's Queen Street Mall for the past 18 years and for 5 years in Cavill Ave, Surfers Paradise. He has performed at venues for the Brisbane Lord Mayor's office, the Queensland Premier's Department, and at other events requiring a "traditional" Aboriginal presence. He has released two musical compilations, ''Didj In Us'' (2001) and ''Didj a Tale'' (2007), as well as a "Beginners Guide to Playing Didjeridoo" (2008). His musical career is supported by speeches and school performances explaining Aboriginal Australian culture and history. International performances include appearances promoting Aboriginal Australian culture in the United States, Europe and Asia. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Burragubba」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
