Didgeridoo virtuoso William Barton and powerhouse violinist Véronique Serret blend traditional songlines and modern storytelling in a collaboration featuring the lyric poetry of William’s mother Aunty Delmae Barton - a message of peace and love carried by the eagle spirit.

Barton and Serret welcome you to experience their unique, meditative soundworld- Serret’s violins and Barton’s prodigious didgeridoo and guitar come together with powerful, soaring vocals and ethereal loops and electronic effects, in a distinctive evocation of our uniquely Australian landscape. The power of connection to place.

HEARTLAND was nominated for an ARIA in 2023 and features their much loved works Kalkani, Didge Fusion and of course the single Heartland.
