#singer #youngsinger #music

The latest Single off Charlie Needs Braces Debut Album is called ‘Daryung’ meaning ‘stingray’ in her mob of the Central Coast the GuriNgai’s language. The Daryung is the mobs totem and their ancestor Bungaree was known for always throwing the Daryung back in the water when fishing, as it was his role to protect and tend to the waters.

The GuriNgai are saltwater people and the Daryung is sacred to the traditional peoples and carries their stories down through generations. The spirits and ancestors live on through the Daryung, and Charlie feels a great sense of pride when she sings this song. She believes through celebrating our culture and sharing our ancestors stories we can continue our cultural journey and solidify our identity as First Peoples.
