Surf-rock band King Stingray were the major winners of the 2023 National Indigenous Music awards (Nimas), with Yothu Yindi – a band in their bloodlines – inducted into the hall of fame at a ceremony in Darwin on Saturday night.
King Stingray, from north-east Arnhem Land, won song of the year and film clip of the year for Let’s Go. The track, from the band’s self-titled debut, was described as “irresistibly joyful” in Guardian Australia’s four-star review.
