☆ Kev Carmody ☆

Kev Carmody is one of Australia's preeminent singer songwriters. A wordsmith whose politically charged and socially aware lyrics saw him described as, "Australia's black Bob Dylan,"early in his career. Of both Aboriginal and Irish heritage - two cultures famous for oral histories in song - Kev was born to be a storyteller.

His best known composition (written with Paul Kelly) is From Little Things Big Things Grow, based on the story of The Gurindji Strike and Vincent Lingiari’s struggle for indigenous land rights and reconciliation.
Kev began writing songs in the mid 1960’s but did not record his first album until 1987.

Minning @ The Manning River
The Manning River is made up of over 358 rivers and creeks sustained through springs, alpine wetlands and swamps. The geology supporting Manning River water and its environment is full of heavy mineral. These minerals remain dormant in their natural settings and have, through mineral processing the potential to interact. Processing of heavy minerals has the potential to release radioactive elements into the environment. The existing coal mine has permission to discharge its waste dam into the Manning River system during flood. An application for a second open cut coal mine has been submitted to Gloucester Council. The main elements of coal are uranium and thorium, radioactive contamination of water and soil is irreversible and can affect the reproductive system of plants, animals and humans which can cause birth defects under development and cancer.
