Melding music and memory, dameeeela brings out the nostalgia within each of us in clubs, parties and festivals across the continent. Through her eclecticism, she blends genres to create trademark collages of sound. As a Queer Blak woman, dameeeela’s selections are shaped by her perspectives. These perspectives illuminate the communities she comes from, propelling their sounds from underground into the spotlight. Her performances are always in conversation with her audience, creating a musical dialogue of continued care. There is a moment, in dameeeela’s aural presence, that tempo dissolves and our spirits are guided in dance, with dameeeela sliding the pace.
We acknowledge and pay respects to the people of Minyungbal Country and all their Elders, past, present and emerging. We also acknowledge the many First Nations people from other regions as well as Torres Strait and South Sea Islander people who now live in the local area and make an important cultural contribution to our community.
Splendour in the Grass is a proudly inclusive organisation and an ally of the LGBTQIA+ community and the movement toward equality.
