Australia's most prominent Indigenous music artist Dr G Yunupingu has died aged 46 and is being mourned by family and friends as a "genius and wonderful human being".
I realise many will not know this beautiful soul overseas, but I implore you to listen to this wonderful songwriter who passed away last night.
Today, both indigenous and non-indigenous music fans across Australia will be hard pressed to not shed a tear at the passing of this beautiful, talented man.

Yes. I saw him at the Opera House a few years ago at a show in which he and his family told the musical story of his life. Very powerful person and music.
