Bluesfest: Ganga Giri

Ever since Xavier Rudd blew the crowd away oh so many years ago, I think the powers-that-be at Bluesfest have keeping an eye open for another didjeridoo act. They've found a good one in Ganga Giri, who like Xavier hails from Australia. He blends in more world music and a electronic sounds and it all works quite well.

Toasting action with MC Jornick Joe Lick!

They got a pretty good response from the crowd.
