Why

Phil Monsour and Sophie Nishizawa are Magan-djin (Brisbane) based musicians who immerse themselves in political solidarity. Phil Monsour’s music takes on war, occupation, exile, inequality, and the silences that need breaking. From The Empire’s New Clothes to Last Sky, his albums channel defiance, hope, and solidarity into unforgettable protest anthems.

Performers

Phil Monsour: On and off the stage, Phil is a committed trade unionist and activist — backing refugee rights, the Palestinian cause, and grassroots movements worldwide. His performances are electric, emotional, and unapologetically political — rallying cries for a fairer world.

Sophie Nishizawa: recently released her debut album ‘going through the hard’ – an album of grief, home, love and resistance - in a time that demands of us our steadfastness. Creating ethereal folk soundscapes mixed with field recordings from both her hometown in Japan and on Yuggera, Turrbal, Jinibara and Quandamooka country. Her music is informed by collective struggle and resistance against oppression.
