đŸ”„ Introducing Docker River Band đŸ”„

A five piece band from Kaltukatjara close to the border of NT and WA. They’ve spent years honing their distinctive desert reggae sound while playing from coast to coast.

They released their debut album “W.A Border” in 2025 - singing in both Pintjantjatjara and English after years of building a strong reputation across regional and remote areas.

We can’t wait to share more from these fellas

We are officially 2 years old (+ 3 months) and it has been a privilege to work alongside , and in the first round of our programs.

The bands’ journeys have reinforced what we believed from the beginning: when the playing field is leveled, even slightly, artists from remote Australia can thrive. 

We’re ready to rip into 2026 supporting three new artists, delivering more events and panels, and taking more solar-powered shows into remote communities! 

2025 was HUGE - here is a snapshot of some of the BMF wins:  
- supported 8 tours and put on 23 shows 
- contributed to 3 original recording projects 
- spearheaded 4 PR campaigns 
- designed and sold 5 merchandise campaigns 
- delivered 3 panel discussions @ Indie-Con, Regional and Remote Music Summit and BIGSOUND
- curated 2 multi artist performances 
- raised $250,000+ to invest directly in bands

We have collated all BMF’s and the bands big wins in a really-good-looking impact report which you can find here (or in our bio): https://www.bushmusicfund.org/about
