When musicians stand up and speak up for the environment, we’re following the lead of First Nations peoples who have cared for Country for tens of thousands of years - their voices are essential to sustainability. We all must advocate for First Nations musicians, share their music and amplify their voices. Below is an evolving list of First Nations-led playlists and radio programs - shoot us an email if we’ve missed any!
