Nyikina Jarndoo artist Stellar Moon’s new single “Still Tea” brings us soul with a message. With its big horns and Stellar Moon’s incredible voice, the lessons go down easy. But make sure you don’t miss those powerful lyrics.
“’Still Tea’ is my funky feisty response to a lifetime of people questioning my Aboriginality due to the colour of my skin,” she confirmed. “The song is based on a well-known saying among First Nations people; “No matter how much milk you pour in the tea, it’s still tea.”
“Still Tea” comes from Stellar Moon’s debut album Phases, which drops on March 7. You can hear more material from it when Stellar Moon plays the ECU Stage at Museum Street in Boorloo/Perth for WAMFEST. She’ll play from 5:40 at this free, all ages event.
