about
An original song in Irish sean-nós style with lyrics in English reminiscing on dancing bush dances in the Lidcombe Primary School Hall, the way that quadrille tunes circulated with colonial encounter and were heard and taken on and enjoyed in new lands despite the ruptures and injustices that came with colonialism and Mahesh's mixed feelings about loving this music while acknowledging its roots a great global injustice.
lyrics
To come.
