In this first biography of the man and his music, Jimmy Little: A Yorta Yorta Man tells the incredible story of one of Australia's most acclaimed Aboriginal pop and country music legends and icons, Jimmy Little.
At just 16 years of age, Jimmy Little travelled to Sydney to make his radio debut on Australia's Amateur Hour. The eldest of seven children and born on the Cummeragunja Reserve on the Murray River, Jimmy's entry into the entertainment industry came at a time when First Nations people were not counted in the census.
In the face of indescribable barriers and discrimination, Jimmy would go on to woo the nation. His immense talent, charm and heart saw him become a household name and national treasure. Jimmy's songs consistently topped the music charts of the 1960s, and he won several of Australia's most prestigious lifetime achievement awards, including the ARIA Hall of Fame, NAIDOC Person of the Year, and Officer of the Order of Australia.
And now his daughter, Frances Peters-Little, tells the full story behind her father's inspiring ascent to stardom. For though this is a story about a pop star and national celebrity, it is also the story of a gentle man who always stayed true to himself and his cultural identity - a man who believed in the power of living your dreams.
Weaving together stories both known and unknown to the public, Jimmy Little: A Yorta Yorta Man will take you on a remarkable journey through a life of music, love and advocacy.
