No Fixed Address appeared on the Australian rock circuit in the early 1980s with a set of songs that gave voice to the truths of their own lives.


While everyone grooved to their reggae beat, whites were often stunned by their power and pride while Indigenous people whispered, Can they say that? Juggling support for the burgeoning land rights movement with the demands of the commercial music industry, they were the first Aboriginal rock band to release an album, appear on Countdown and tour overseas. No Fixed Address continues to perform and will tour in support of the book in 2023.


They came crashing into middle-class Australia. And it changed everything. Really. I think ‘tip of the spear’ is an appropriate term. – Shane Howard, Goanna

I think they were a band that was of their time. They were exactly what was required at that period, for many different reasons. – Colin Hay, Men at Work
