BottomErling ‘Duke’ Gronhaug is a Norwegian musician and filmmaker based in Newcastle for the last 25 years. A multi-instrumental musician at heart, he often found himself behind the drum kit (Mousemoon/Mojo Juju & the Snake Oil Merchants) or front and centre, attempting to play Casio keyboards and be funny (The Main Guy & the Other Guys). Every now and then, however, his more personal songs would surface. This is one of those times.
Newcastle Writers Festival would like to acknowledge the Awabakal and Worimi peoples, the Traditional Custodians of the land on which the festival takes place, and recognise their continuing connection to land, water and community. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging and extend this respect to all First Nations people attending our festival.
