About Ganga Giri

Ganga's Journey

Born in Port Fairy, Australia, Ganga’s musical journey kicked off at age 8 on the drum kit. After a powerful dream, he picked up the yidaki (didgeridoo) the next day—and never looked back.

Blending deep traditional roots with modern beats, Ganga pioneered a unique First Nations/World fusion sound, uniting rhythm, culture, and community. His music carries a strong message: caring for Country and each other, like First Nations people always have.

Ganga’s genre-defying sound has reached global audiences through albums, major film soundtracks, and electrifying performances. Driven by a passion to share Australia’s magic and inspire healing through the didgeridoo, his music invites people to dance, feel, and connect.

Now a father based in the hills of Melbourne, Ganga’s focus is local—uplifting community, nurturing future leaders, and empowering Aboriginal boys and men through music and culture.

As co-founder of Didgeridoo Australia / First Nations Incursions, he brings Aboriginal programs into schools, breaking down racism and celebrating Culture. From festivals to classrooms, Welcome to Country to smoking ceremonies, Ganga shares, teaches, and gives back—grounded in purpose, led by vibration.
