Christine Anu is one of Australia’s most popular recording artists and performers of all time, who uses her voice and reputation to spread a message of unity and hope. With 17 ARIA nominations, including the APRA AMCOS award-winning My Island Home and her platinum album Stylin’ Up, she has one of the country’s most enduring and recognisable voices.
Her acclaimed 27-year career spans all forms of media, including music, theatre, dance, film, television, radio, children’s entertainment, and one of the most influential keynote speakers. Her broad range of achievements includes platinum-selling solo albums, acting in Hollywood blockbusters such as Moulin Rouge and The Matrix: Reloaded, performing in hit sell-out musicals like Rent and Little Shop of Horrors, and featuring roles in high-profile TV shows like The Alice and Outland. Over the years, Christine has been central to several memorable historic moments, with her performance of “My Island Home” at the Sydney 200 Olympics Closing Ceremony a notable standout. Many Australians consider Christine’s My Island Home as the unofficial Australian National Anthem
Christine has and will always be proud of her Torres Strait Islander heritage and, at any given opportunity, will use her public profile as a platform to advocate for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and others from marginalised backgrounds. Anu is a prominent voice of multicultural Australia and, in 2016, was appointed host of the ABC radio program and now presents her own national radio show on ABC Radio every Friday and Saturday.
When speaking to Anu about her proudest career moments, she speaks of becoming a mother to her two children and mentoring her now 18-year-old daughter Zipporah as an entertainer in her own right. Christine and Zipporah have naturally taken the stage together, and in 201,9 they performed at the Women’s NRL Grand Final.
Her eagerly awaited album, ‘Waku,’ is a collaborative masterpiece produced by her long-time musical ally, David Bridie. ‘Waku’ unfolds as a poignant narrative, delving into the stories of Anu’s culturally rich heritage.
