Episode 17 Blog Notes: The Dinky Di Aussie Trilogy, Part 2

Episode 17 Blog Notes: The Dinky Di Aussie Trilogy, Part 2

Introduction

A huge welcome to Episode 17 of the Welcome to Music podcast – The Dinky Di Aussie Trilology - Discover Australia with Dazza and his Fair Dinkum Aussie Tales & Tunes 

 In our previous Episode 16, I shared an introduction to the Dinky Di Aussie Trilogy and the song ‘Dinky Di Aussie’. If you haven’t listened to it yet, I highly recommend starting there. Dazza, the Dinky Di Aussie (written and created by Susie and Phil), is an adventurous and musical spirit who embodies the true essence of an Australian traveller and performer. Hailing from the outback near the iconic "back of Burke," Dazza is known for his warm greetings and love for saying "G'day." His journeys take him across Australia and around the world, where he shares his unique blend of music, playing traditional and quirky instruments like the washboard, didgeridoo, bongos, and lagerphone. 

In today’s episode, we will continue on the ‘Dinky Di Aussie Trilogy’ journey and share 2 further songs – ‘Say G’Day’ and ‘Dazza’- which follow further adventures with Dazza.
